I do not plan to do anything with the carpet edges. Most of them are hidden actually. I don't think they would frey though. This stuff is not like typical house carpet. It seems to be synthetic and melted together at the bottom. Not sure how to explain it. If you are interested you can check it out at your local Menards.
Dan: I am not replacing the headliner. But, if you want to do yours I can give you pointers or possibly come help you. I did the one in my beige car.

Carpet looks awesome bren, do they have other colors? I might installing some in my tan car, and that looks like it fits great for the price.

They carry black and a grey. Local Menards only had the black. Mine is the black though it does not show that way in the photos.

If you put down floor mats you don't see much of the carpet. So, black might not look that bad in your car. Just a thought.

Nice work, Bren! I really like the stereo bracket. I think I can finally move mine back toward the front burner and start again!

I installed a new headliner in my sunroof car in August. I made some mistakes (all reversible), but learned along the way. When you get ready to do this, give me a shout.
