LMC color match

I've got a few projects going, and I need some interior parts. mostly arm rest. how is lmc color match to stock colors? I have a 77 with light blue interior and all it needs is arm rest to make it almost perfect, but what I see in the catalog looks to dark. am I better off ordering black and try to match paint them? then on my 88 crew cab the seat covers don't look like they will match at all. should I order up what I think is right and just be prepaired to send it back.

Re: LMC color match

Ask for color samples if they have the. If your comparing to original colors, they are possibly faded. Also keep in mind that GM's interior pieces were a hodge-podge of colors anyway.

It was not uncommon for pieces to be miss matched from the factory.

If you really want them to match, dye them all from the same can...
