Headlliner?
 
Trying to figure out how to do a custom headliner in my Panel. Want to do smooth no noticeable ribs or seams. Front to rear. Option 1 a panel piece fastened to roof ribs then cover with material using glue similar to carpet glue. I figure I can do side radius kind of like roll top desk, Strips with heavy material backing glued to allow to roll to contour. Do similar on sides using different coverings and the push lock pins like used on lot of modern upholstery and trim.

Figure probably a better way. Like to find out before trying my ideas. Any advise.

I used the factory headliner panels and covered them with headliner material from Amazon.

nothing wrong with yours. great job. I am just not wanting to use any visible ribs or seams. Want to look like one continuous piece. I could fasten a fur strip and tack tp that just waste if height and width when doing walls next but there it is dbl .Plus if the General contractor guy doing job misses the furring strip with air nailer it could puncture or and minimum dimple the sheet metal
