Hello All,
The inner ceiling of my 90 735i has collapsed. Any suggestions or recommendations?

Thanks,
Sam

The two options are replace the part (about $380 and 3-4 hours labor) or have it redone by an upholstery shop.

I got a deal on the replacement part ($150) from BavAuto, it was a bit of a pain in the nuts to install... but the result is WELL worth it! Others on the board have recommended having a shop do a reupholster, stated it cost about $200. If I could have gotten a GREAT result for $200, I'd have been there.

If you want to look at what's involved in the replacement route, check this out:
