Headliner

Jason, that's really good looking. Does the solid surface echo noise badly?

As an aside, are the spices going to stay in the rack when some poot cuts in front of you anf you have to light the tires to keep fropm hitting
him>?:)

I have that in my coach, but the gray version.

It's very nice I'd use it again

Regardless of what you use for the headliner, this may be a good option to consider.

Rmax Plus-1 in. x 4 ft. x 8 ft. Polyisocyanurate Rigid Foam Insulation Board

I put this with the foil facing out and put the FRP over it. This is pretty easy to cut, and fit into all the rectangles of the ceiling supports.
You will probably need to shave off some of the original spray foam, but as you will find out that was by no means a perfect covering job when
originally applied. Its a bit more work but its worth it. I would not remove all the original foam up there, but just enough to slide the insulation
panels up there. Then go over all the seams with Aluminum Duct tape. Thats normally found in the instillation section pretty close. 7 bucks or so a
roll. This helps to seal up drafts and as a bonus what ever ceiling panel you go with will not have open cavities behind it.

I have found it keeps the coach a bit cooler when in the sun, and probably helps with some noise.

Johnny,
Thanks.
The noise is not an issue, very little road noise thanks to being very well insulated on all 4 sides. Not noticeable at all when speaking or listening
to music in the coach. I was mildly concerned after reading so much emphasis here on sound absorbing material for the headliner. IMHO all that talk is
bologna as it doesn't get flatter or smoother than aluminum and my coach sounds like a caddy inside. There is absolutely zero tincan feel or sound. I
obviously can't comment on how it would work in a stock coach. Mine was gutted and re-insulated with spray foam in every single nook and cranny.

The spices are actually inset into their own individual CNC cut holders by 1.25" (not just sitting behind a board) so they aren't going anywhere!

Oh OK. The concern is reflection of existing noise off a hard surface. If there's no noise there can be no reflection :) And curved is way better
than flat.
