Headliner color
Thanks to the search function, I've found great instructions on how to replace my headliner.
I have a tan interior in my '94, and I was thinking about replacing the original black headliner with tan fabric. Has anyone else done this color scheme, or seen someone else's car with it? How did it look?
I was also thinking about leaving the visors black, to match the black-and-tan scheme on the doors.
Opinons?

Ive never seen it but i think it might look pretty good, with the black n tan combo. I will be replacing mine soon with a synthetic leather that i have laying around. so off to the search function for me. Go for it, and if you dont like it, you can always change it later right?

I went to the local fabric store "Joannes Fabric" and bought both gray and black microfiber for less than 20 bucks and did my own little design

I think it ties the interior into the exterior

OK, whoever says that the headliner should just "come right out" is spouting 
I actually think mine may have been redone once before, because it was unbelievable trying to get the insulation board loose. I hope it holds up ok. I'm reinstalling with velcro, so if the board craps out and I have to get a new one, it won't be that bad. Props to whoever it was that first suggested velcro for this.
I decided to go with a tan colored vinyl that looks very close to the tan vinyl on the doors. Glue is drying tonight, fingers crossed...
