Default Headliner problems fixed cheap

I recently started to have trouble with my headliner in my '04 Crossfire. My car stays garaged and is driven very rarely. I found out through this forum that I was not the only one with this problem (to say the least). Like most, I called the dealer to see what a complete replacement would cost and found out that I wouldn't drive off with it fixed for less than $900--$1000.

I found an upholstery repair shop in Alvin, TX (I am from the Houston area). The shop is nothing special and the owner doesn't speak very good english, but the guy did a great job and I drove off for $90 - material and labor included. As far as I can tell, it is the exact same material that the car originally came with. I'm no expert, but I can't tell the difference and I was told it was the same material prior to agreeing to have it replaced. It only took him two hours for the whole job, start to finish. Needless to say, I was relieved at the over $800 savings.
