Well, I keep looking for a black headliner to replace my gray, which just doesn't look right with my Auburn seats & Black dash. I found one on eBay today:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BMW-E60-M5-...sQ5fAccessories
A whopping $2,399 + $99 shipping! This is way out of my price range. What's your opinion, is this a reasonable price? If so, I guess gray never looked as good to me as it does now.

And plus this is not the standard black cloth headliner you get with the sports packages, this is the M5 Alacantra headliner so is expensiver to start with, but as others have already said roveractive is always alot expensiver than other vendors, greedyy!!!

Mike at MethodSound.com is going to replace all the cloth in mine with suede- pillars, headliner, etc. Something like $2k if i remember correctly.

That's quite expensive (think of all the other Mods you could do with that kind of money) I'd look elsewhere for a more economical replacement!

The black is a $500 priority one option so it should be no more expensive than replacing the gray one. An uphohstery shop might be able to dye it black. I never liked the gray headliner. When I could order the anthracite headliner, I had to get that option.
