A headliner includes one or more integrally formed flaps extending from an edge of the headliner and integrally hinged to the edge of the headliner to fold over the top of the headliner and be concealed in the area between the headliner and vehicle sheet metal roof. In one embodiment of the invention, the panel defining flaps are formed of a pleated headliner material to provide a crushable impact absorption material. In another embodiment of the invention where higher density headliner material is employed, the flaps are compressed headliner material to provide a relatively thin, high density impact absorption padding.
