These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

15 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Planet-9: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Anyone have a recommendation for a shop in the SF Bay Area (preferably from San Jose to Mountain View) to replace the sagging headliner in my 2008 Cayman ? Thx Eric

POST 2Original post

I had a droopy headliner on mine 2011 and used Sidco Custom Upholstery in Mountain View in 2023. Removed the headliner myself to save on labor costs but they have the ability to do it themselves too. Sidco Custom Upholstery Inc. San Francisco Bay Area and The Woodlands Texas, Automotive Upholstery Shop that provides custom upholstery & restoration for classic cars, boats, & other vehicles. www.sidcocustoms.com Went with black alcantara. If you need additional details let me know

I've gotten three estimates from recommended shops. To remove, clean, replace the headliner material with cloth and reinstall 1. Sid's custom upholstery Sidco Custom Upholstery Inc. San Francisco Bay Area and The Woodlands Texas, Automotive Upholstery Shop that provides custom upholstery & restoration for classic cars, boats, & other vehicles. www.sidcocustoms.com ~$800 2.

Wardell's Wardell Auto Interiors & Tops Wardell Auto Interiors & Tops is the Silicon Valley's premier automotive upholstery facility. Specializing in convertible tops, automotive upholstery repair, restoration, SRS diagnostics, vinyl repair, and more. www.wardellauto.com ~$1300

POST 4Original post

I took mine to Sidco. They got the OEM fabric and did nice work. Like Newold I pulled and cleaned the headliner myself and just dropped that part off.

POST 5Original post

When the headliner on my 987 started to fail, I found an upholster that worked with high end cars and I choose to install Alcantara which was about $100 extra over their standard headliner. The car stayed there overnight and 'literally stinked' for a few days (glue they used..) but the installed headliner was way better (IMHO) than the original headliner Eventually, when the headliner 981 fails I would choose again the Alcantara option, it just looks (and feels) much nicer

POST 6Original post

If it’s worth it to you, I had a local shop do it out here in Brentwood about 3 or 4 years ago for $400.

POST 7Original post

Since my car is yellow, I bought Dritz 3005 Quilting Pins, 1-3/4-Inch, Yellow You can't stick them straight in, because they'll quickly hit the metal roof. Instead, insert at a nearly parallel angle. 5 minute fix!

POST 11Original post

$450-600 in LA depending on your choice of material. This shop has done 2 of my cars, and someone else went there on my recommendation and they were very happy as well. I'm at about year 8 on the repair and it is holding up great.

POST 12Original post

@BoostTed I don’t see a shop listed in your thread. Would be good to have it for future reference.

SIdco did a great job on mine. I went with a black/charcoal pepita or houndstooth and it came out great.
