Reply to "Question regarding the Pantera head liner"

Over on the Jaguar forum, I have been getting a synthetic suede for many members (like Alcantara) to replace headliners and A pillars.  It is being glued directly to the roof without foam.  The foam deteriorates causing the headliner to drop.  It happened in my XKR today!.  The nice thing about the synthetic suede that I supply them with is that besides coming in about 100 colors, and it being extremely high quality, it is 60" wide and costs about $5.00/running yard 36"X60".  I buy it from a couple of different sources but my main source charges me $4.95/yd.  It looks and feels like real suede and is thicker than Alcantara and therefore more adaptable to gluing directly to the roof.  If anyone here needs it, just let me know.  When my car was undergoing restoration, I lined the front trunk with this microfibre suede, and I'm about to upholster the rear tub in the same.  It's a great, low cost fabric called Passion Suede.
