Default Felt unattached

Hi there,

Part of the material inside my car came undone ( please see pictures)








The other side ( how it should look).
, i tried to glue it back with Gorilla glue and not only it did not stick, it ruined the material also( im the first to admit im an idiot &#128513.

What can I do now?

The A pillar liner material sagging is a really common problem with X types.. I've had three and each one has had an issue.with them. I also spoiled the material on one by using a carpet glue that leached through the surface and left it permanently stained.
On this car I managed to do it with a light material glue and so far so good..I was also lucky that I could lift the material up enough with a cocktail stick to get the nozzle under without removing the frame liner as these can sometimes be a bit brittle.Hope it works out.
