Default Headliner

I have a 2003 Z06, and the headliner is starting to separate at the front right where it meets the windshield. It is only a small spot.
Has anyone had this problem and if so what did you use to fix it. There are so many different types of glues out there it is hard to know which one to use for what.
Any help is appreciated.

Used 3M Super Duty Adhesive spray in the past for redoing complete headliners. I would use the same stuff for your spot. Just spray it into a cup and use a small disposable brush to apply to the area.

Mine's doing the same on my 2003 Z but not at the front. As (bad) luck would have it, mine is separated almost directly above my head and back a little bit, right where the ridge starts. Pisses me off because I have no idea how to fix it. It rattles.

The car has 7,500 miles on it.

Might want to check in the Parts section and see if anyone is parting out a Z06. I picked up a spare headliner, as I had to cut the factory headliner to flush mount my LCD monitor into it.

find a good auto upholstery shop and have them replace the whole headliner. the cloth is delaminating from the foam and only will get worse. probably won't cost all that much as its not that large of a headliner.
