Jorgan,

Two key words in your post spur this reply. Cheap and easy. My headliner was falling down and I was broke in college. So I pulled it out, pulled the cloth off the pressed board and the took and wire brush and scraped off the foam backing that the cloth left behind. Then I sanded the pressed board (cardboard?) until it was respectfully smooth and then I shot it with black rubberized under coating. One 18oz can will cover the entire headliner. Then I put it back in the car and I spent about 2.5 hours and 2.5 bucks. Sunroof is a different story but I did that as well. Just depends what you want and how much you want to spend. For my car that is in great shape, but closing in on 20 years old, I'm pleased with the results.
