The CORRECT material, as shown in your picture, nowhere.  Legendary has something that has zero resemblance to your picture.  It is actually not available in any colour, including black.

The factory correct material is impossible to find in any color. My SE has a black headliner and I used material supplied by Legendary Interiors. It's not 100% correct but it turned out okay.

Here is another option. I got samples from them but didn't use them. I even went to some large fabric stores but couldn't find anything close.

If....you are not going for exact original with the foam backing.....find you a hobby store and use orange felt.  It won 't deterate over time either.

I bought my green SE headliner fabric from SMS. The color and outside texture was an exact match to my original. Only difference there is no foam, but the material is padded, so once glued on it looks and feels the same as the original. :bigthumb:

Thanks guys
Was told by my timmer it needs to have the foam backing or the glue will bleed though the material.

Easy to work with too.

Thanks for the link on that....interesting to know....I hope the representation of the orange color is not 100% accurate, however it does look close  :rubeyes:
