Question Where can I get Bright Blue vinyl

I'm looking for some bright blue vinyl to cover a console. I'm assuming Madrid grain is what I'm looking for. Does anybody happen to know where I can find some? Thanks!

Re: Where can I get Bright Blue vinyl

Thanks! I put in a color request, so I'm hoping they will get back to me soon. Is it a safe assumption that all GM "Bright Blue" vinyls in '67 were the same? I've noticed a lot of impalas, chevelles, etc. listed as having bright blue.

You might also try Miami Corp.

They carry original vinyl. I have order some samples from them in the past. I do know that alot of auto upholstery places use them for materials and foam.

Good luck
Marc

Re: Where can I get Bright Blue vinyl

SMS is really good at matching correct color/material to year specific stuff.

I've personally had really good experiences with SMS and their online/phone support person.

I highly recommend them!

Tim,
You must have lots of stuff! Depending on the width, I would only need about a yard. The piece is pretty small. The upholstery guy I talked to this afternoon said that it couldn't be done because of some of the angles I made in it. I'm not sure if he just didn't want to mess with it or what, although he looked at it pretty closely before he told me he couldn't do it. I might have to do another version.

Is it still nice and flexible? If so, I'll take it. Thanks!
