Default Wind takes off the fabric on the back window pillars!

Anyone else having this problem? I like to drive with all windows down and sunroof open, but the turbulent air catches behind the pillars next to the rear windows causing the fabric to come undone and flap around like I was driving a cheap Korean import! I use headliner glue to put them back in place, but eventually they do it again.
Anyone else have this pressing issue?

I had this same issue last summer when my a/c compressor went out...but I fixed it with some gorilla glue. It sealed it right up with no mess and it hadn't come undone yet.

My rear and front ones both did it. I bought some 3M headliner glue and it stuck it on good, problem is the stuff didnt dry clear.

I got some "Interior Guys" here in Richmond that will rewrap them comepletely and guarantee they'll never come undone again (they said the problem is Jaguar didnt wrap the liner under/around the pillar, they cut it. They want $125.00 per pillar though..ugg.
