It turn out just average since I was unable to avoid wrinkles in the back corners using 1 piece. I’m convinced my process was flawed. Thankfully when the top is on since it’s black , and in a shadow , the wrinkles are hard to see. But I know they’re there. So I can appreciate this craftsmanship. Nice. Oh and my rear window install left my fingers bruised and battered but it’s been in now for 3 years and hasn’t blown out with 80 mph highway driving. Yet.

Thanks, I was planning on a one piece headliner too, but just too many compound inside curves to not have a bunch of wrinkles, so 3 pieces it is. And I agree, those windows were a chore, tool most of 2 days to get them in, including lots of breaks to rest the fingers. Tough job.
