$1000 for a Headliner!!
Four years ago or so I replaced the headliner in my 2016 Stingray with a GM quilted one like in the Z06. Was under $400 at the time.
Well looking to do the same in my 2019 Grand Sport. But are you serious, I see them for $1000 and up!! Multiple online stores and eBay. Maybe there is $50 of material there, cardboard back and the actual headliner fabric. Guess supply and demand! But seriously who would pay $1000 for that.
Maybe I should make my own and sell them, really not rocket science to make. I can sell them for $200 and make a fortune!

Why not check and see what a local auto upholstery shop would charge to make one for you.

As the C7's are no longer in production from the last time you bought one, that could be the reason for the price increase
