Here's a random headliner tip: If you're doing a white interior, you might assume the headiner is white, but you might be wrong--run a google-image search and check. For just one example, the headliner on '69 Camaros with white interior is black. And I've run across a couple other examples too. 

I guess that I was always under the assumption that most headliners were done in lighter colors to brighten up the interior.

I hadn't really tested this theory by researching, but it just made sense to me.

I ran across this while surfing. It comes in all sorts of colors but I have no idea if it is suitable or not? Has anyone tried any of it?

Ken's Fuzzi Fur is a flocking used for carpeting for years.  That was before embossing powder became an option

Build convertibles and you won't have to be concerned.

As a general rule. Unless its a vintage drag car. 90% of what I build is convertibles

To follow up on what Snake wrote, my parents owned a 1970 Olds 88.  The body was green with a white interior.  The headliner was green.
