Why not use something like this, stick the painter tape to it so the tape doesn't stick to the headliner. Then put this on the edge of your trim panels. If you use 1/4" mdf it should work, and it will have some give to it

that seems like it would definitely work. I was thinking on my lunch break about some stuff i saw before that is sort up a rubber stripping that goes around boards. I saw it at lowes a while back. It was sticky on one side. That would work perfect as I could bend it how I want. But I can't remember what it's called. anyone know what I'm talking about?

something like this? i would go this route as was stated earlier. but get something thicker than what's pictured. that's weather stripping by the way

That's not exactly what I was talking about but that definitely seems like the way to go! I think that's the route I will take. I'll use cardboard to measure, mdf to fill the gap, and the weather stripping on top to protect the headliner. Thanks alot for all the input everyone!

Spray expanding foam into plastic sheeting or even plastic bags around the box, that way it won't leave any residue in the car. Watch it carefully to make sure it stays how you want it. Then trim it out and make it look nice with some wood. Use thick foam tape around the wood to make sure the wood doesn't leave any marks either. If there are significant spaces that need to be filled in, you may want to take some wood, like 2x4s, and build up around the front of the box before you apply the foam.
