Maverick Headliner Color Options? Or Must We DIY?

[thotpatrol]

I've got the XLT with the navy interior, so the off-white headliner & pillars aren't super out of place, but I want to replace everything from the pillars up with black.
I have looked around and even the black accent packages seem to use the standard headliner & pillars.
Do any of the trim levels have headliners with different colors?
Until I got my Maverick (Jan 2022) I was used to driving my '17 Interceptor Utility with all-black interior (pic related (not mine just pulled off google))

I am fine with the navy interior but can't stand the off-white headliner & pillars.
If they aren't available now will they ever be made aftermarket?
I have a feeling I'm going to have to DIY some sort of solution;
In that case, what sort of fabric dyes do y'all recommend for headliners?
And what kind of paint for the plastic parts and pillars?

Nope, no black headliner on any model.

Dying the headliner would be more trouble than its worth, it would be easier to just have it redone in black material. As for the other parts there is plastic dye paint but I am not sure how well it would last and/or stand up to scratching.

There's a step-by on removing the headliner in the Service Manual, you can find a link to that on cardiagn.com. Seconding All3spl in that dyeing it would probably be annoying, I'd get a piece of cloth with the coloring I want cut to size from a upholstery or fabric store and then fabric glue and staple it on by hand to keep it contoured correctly without bending the headliner.

It'll take some doing but not impossible or super duper difficult, the plastic pillar trims will pop out easily but you'll need to be careful removing the airbag and wiring in order to paint. For the pillars the standard sand/paint/layer for auto interior plastic applies

Agree with your advice. I had the headliner redone on my Volkswagen when the liner material separated and was flapping after 10 yrs of ownership. Took to a car restoration shop and they removed the headliner panel and re-lined with new fabric. Estimated price would be about $500 to $1000 for a Maverick.
