Ferrari F430 headliner sagging or falling down? We rebuild it for good

On the F430 the leather headliner bubbles, sags and comes away from the roof – and the original part is no longer available. In our workshop in Riazzino, Ticino (Switzerland), we rebuild it on a new glass-fibre substructure with foam and new Ferrari leather.

The job, step by step

  1. Original F430 headliner: leather loose and bulging above the side window 01

    The headliner comes loose

    The leather bubbles and pulls away from the roof, often after hail damage. The original part is gone, and re-gluing it on the same base doesn’t hold.

  2. Glass fibre laid on the shape of the Ferrari’s roof, bodywork masked 02

    Glass-fibre substructure

    With the bodywork masked, we form a glass-fibre substructure on the shape of the roof – the new, stable base for the headliner.

  3. Headliner panel covered in black leather on the bench, the yellow F430 behind 03

    Foam and new Ferrari leather

    The panel gets foam and new Ferrari leather, cut and stretched by hand in our workshop.

  4. The new leather headliner fitted in the F430 04

    Fitting

    The new headliner goes back in over the original sound-deadening, then we refit the cabin trim.

Why the F430 headliner comes loose

The F430’s roof gets very hot. Over the years the old sound-deadening under the leather gives way: the leather bubbles, sags and comes loose. It often happens after hail damage and a roof repair at the body shop, too.

It’s a common problem on this model, and the original part is no longer available.

Why re-gluing isn’t enough

Re-gluing the leather on the same base doesn’t last: the base has degraded and the headliner comes loose again.

So we build a new headliner: a glass-fibre substructure over the original sound-deadening, then foam and new Ferrari leather. The headliner stays where it belongs.

Price, time, warranty and collection

Complete headliner rebuild: CHF 3,750, VAT included.

The car stays in our workshop for 5 days: that’s how long the materials need to dry completely.
