Need help finding upholstery fabric

Hey Guys,
I've been talking to Stitch to do my bench seat and door panels and we have run into alittle problem.
I want to do the bench gray vinyl with a black and gray houndstooth insert, The problem is that we can't find any black and gray houndstooth they make black and white but I don't think that will look good in a metallic green truck.
So here's were all you fine folks come in to save the day. What I want is if you guys can find me a black and gray pattern in automotive fabric that you think would look good, let me know, and so I can see what your talking about post a picture of the pattern with who makes it.


Also some of you may or may not know but I am in Afghanistan right now, so what I will do is if I pick your pattern I'll bring you somthing back for over here.
Kind of a prize for helping a soldier out.


Thank you all and have a GREAT DAY

Re: Need help finding upholstery fabric

I haven't seen the black/grey combo. What about going with black vinyl (or a leatherette), and using the green houndstooth insert? Here is a green seat.
