LOL! Yeah you should definately do the sunshade, or buy a black one to match the rest.
If you don't know how to pull the sunshade you would have to pull the headliner back out and drop the sunroof frame, then pull the shade out through the back of the assembly.

dang man... i want suede inserts on my seats so bad. I was quoted a price of $1000 for all four seat inserts and my headliner. but i think it would look weird if i did the headliner and not the pillars...

I've been watching these DIY projects over on AZ to. Thinking it looks farily simple if you take your time. Wife said she needs to run by hobby lobby, michels and joann's after work so I guess I'll go alone(willing for once) and see what colors of microsuede they have. - what kind of adhesive did you use? did you just put the suede over the headliner or did you strip it first?

it was a very easy install the only hard part is getting the pillars off you cant be afraid to use force (and a crowbar) : D The seats are going to be difficult because it needs to be veryprecise and involves sewing it on

i used 3M adhesive for vinyl and headliners and I just laid the suede over the headliner you can do it either way
