Default A4 Headliner Replacement?

The headliner is bubbling (coming down) above the back seats of my 2000 Audi A4. Does anyone know where I can get the fabric to replace it with? I talked to an upholstry guy, he said he cant just glue it back up as it is b/c the glue will run through, but if I can manage to track down the fabric for it he can pull the whole headliner out, scrap the fabric, and replace it.

Thanks for any help.

PS if it matters, my interior is the blue/cream color combo (meaning the headliner color is a light tan/cream)

how much does the full headliner piece go for? And how much does suede cost?

If you all did suede instead, what color would you get it in to go with the blue/cream interior? here's a picture of my interior:




you can see the color of the headliner fabric on the pillar to the left side


note: i'll be putting my car up for sale after i get this taken care of so it has to be something presentable to buyers, not me.

for the headliner i would need 5 yards by 60 inches so thatd be $85, which is actually pretty expensive but it's doable. Thanks for the info that really helps. I have a guy that will put it in for me and for the headliner and pillars he'll charge me around $200. So that's $285. The question now is.. does a new full headliner piece cost less than $285?
