I also used expanding foam to fill in the void from the sunroof hole on the headliner. It's a bit lumpy and doesn't look fantastic but it's a good stopgap until I find a 128i headliner w/o a sunroof. I filled the hole with expanding foam from the top and laid a piece of thick cardboard over the top of the foam with the headliner laying flat on the floor so it would dry smooth-ish. I'll post some pics later.

When I deleted my sunroof I used a roll of universal 5/16" weatherstripping from autozone. I applied some dish soap to the edge of the sunroof opening to help fit the delete panel into place. After that snugged up the 10 or 11 bolts inside in a star pattern. Tested my weatherstripping with a prolonged hose down prior to attempting any sealing inside. As far as the inside goes I went to town with gasket sealer out of a caulking gun just in case weatherstripping ever gets lazy.

Oh forgot to mention, I also used weather stripping around the top edge of the sunroof panel that is elevated. I then filled the gap from the top (outside the car from the top of the roof) with black caulking.
