Default 70 Chevelle headliner help!!!

I did my share of research on how to install a bow style headliner seeing how this is my first... I have been doing a dry fit just to make sure I know what to do and where, before I use any glue... I am happy with 80% of it, but when I get to the sail panel area, it seems like there is too much material to make it look nice... I get all the bows in place, tug and set the front, tug and set the rear, and start setting the sides. I am pulling as straight as possible but with just enough side force to eliminate wrinkles... Also using heat gun very carefully...No matter what I do, there is just a wrinkled mess at the sail panel area... I actually added a 2''section of listing (bow sleeve) to the rear bow to make it contour better-It worked but only solved half the problem. The other half of the problem is the excess bunching at the sail panel/quarter window... Any suggestions??? Any Tricks??
