It is original. It was actually pretty clean when I got it. Not bad for a white headliner thats 40 yrs old! I did use some oxyclean spray cleaner (for laundry stains) and cleaned up any tough spots.

I took an old black carpet floor mat that was about 3ft x 4ft and cut it, then flipped it over. So that the rubber bottom is actually the top now. It is a little short though. Looks ok for now, but I really want a huge piece of solid rubber mat to cut to size, so that it matches the rest of the mats.

Like all beautiful things, it's simple and uncomplicated. Pure ambrosia, with Cheshire cat contentment.
