Default Headliner replacement

Hey guys
I got pretty interested in replacing my '11 gray headliner to a black to match the leather. Has anyone here done anything like this or have seen it? I can't find anyone else online that has done it with this car yet. I can't find any of the material either.

Probably best to dye it, might be the easiest thing

what material is the headliner? Is it a polyester or suede? Looking for the dye that's used.

I would go to an auto upholster and see what they say. Just ask what material it is and what it would cost to redo it. You don't need to have them do it but you will get an idea of what needs to be done. By the way it isn't an easy job and there are a lot of tricks of the trade in doing this installation.
