Product Description:
Hawks Motorsports offers our clients this 1974-1981 Camaro Firebird Trans Am Neutral Tan Foam-Backed Perforated Vinyl Headliner Material, Material Only, Acme 74-1513P-FBH8.
This replacement headliner material is designed for recovering a clean and structurally sound original or replacement headliner board. Acme identifies the FBH8 color as Neutral Tan, providing a subdued tan shade for second-generation Camaro, Firebird, Formula and Trans Am interior restoration projects. Acme lists Neutral Tan separately from its Ginger, Camel Tan and Buckskin material colors.
The perforated vinyl face provides a factory-style appearance, while the attached foam backing supplies the cushioned layer between the finished vinyl surface and the headliner board. The material can replace an original headliner covering that has become faded, stained, torn, loose or separated from its deteriorated foam backing.
This listing includes the foam-backed perforated vinyl covering material only. The headliner board, sun visors, visor brackets, roof trim, mounting hardware and installation adhesive are not included.

Application note: This product is replacement covering material and does not include a molded headliner board. Verify that the existing board is reusable and confirm the vehicle’s hardtop or T-Top roof configuration before ordering.
INSTALLATION NOTES
Remove the headliner board from the vehicle before recovering it. Carefully strip away the original vinyl, deteriorated foam and loose adhesive without damaging the underlying board.
The board must be clean, dry and structurally sound. Repair cracks, damaged edges and weakened mounting areas before installing the replacement covering.
Dry-fit and center the material before applying adhesive. Use a high-temperature automotive headliner adhesive compatible with foam-backed vinyl. Work gradually from the center toward the outer edges to reduce wrinkles, trapped air and uneven tension.
Do not excessively stretch the vinyl during installation. Stretching can distort the perforation pattern, compress the foam backing and place unnecessary tension on the adhesive bond.
Allow the adhesive to cure according to its instructions before trimming excess material or reinstalling the headliner board. Professional installation is recommended when the original board is brittle, warped, cracked or previously repaired.
Colors displayed on computer monitors and mobile devices may differ from the actual material. Compare a physical sample with the vehicle’s existing trim when a close color match is required.
