How flexible is the headliner?
Hi everyone,

As far as flexibility goes, how flexible is the Evo headliner? I don't care if it looks good or not for the final result if it gets bent, just curious if it is a hard sheet of plastic or somewhat malleable.

Thanks in advance.

If it gets folded, it will probably leave a crease. I work in automotive interiors, and the evo headliner feels more rigid but more thin than most others.

Thank you for your input!

I am not too concerned about the creasing, its going in to a race car which I will probably wad up anyway

Why do you need a headliner in a race car?

SCCA Touring Two. I have to have my full interior. Apparently the SCCA board wants us to all die in fires, can't say I blame them.
