if you feel like going with this, here's a tip. Advanced Auto and D.A.P. sell a paint in a can for fabric and trim. I have done this with the interior panels to my 93 altima gxe. it goes on very well. To get the stiffness out of the spray on the fabric use a new hard bristle hand brush. it will loosen up the fabric from being stuck together. If you're worried about fumes, do each panel outside the vehicle and let it set for a day in the sun, no fumes will be inside vehicle. will have to put a minmum of 3 coats on after laying a primer down though. one can can usually do 2 1/2 panels. i have done this to the whole interior of my car, and it has turned out very sweet.

If your going to put a new headliner in, I would have it professionaly done, because you don't want it to sag at all.
