Question Cigarette burn hole in liner

The roof liner in my XK8 has a burn hole where the previous owner must have had a cig in his left hand and touched the lit end to the roof. Any ideas on the best way to disquise or repair? ( Don't want to replace the whole thing!)

If you Google "Headliner Burn Repair" there are lots of hits. There are also repair kits out there for DIY (Amazon.com: Customer Reviews: Permatex 25247 Fabric Repair Kit).

The other option is to take it into an upholstery shop and have it professionally repaired..

I've heard of button like repair that stick into the liner to hold up an area that is sagging.
