Sources for interior/upholstery parts
Anyone have any suggestions on sources of best QUALITY interior upholstery pieces? I need door panels, visors, dash pad, buddy bucket covers, headliner and arm rests. Basically ALL of it.
I also would like to buy a low hump molded carpet kit, but I also need about 3-4 extra yards of matching carpet for misc. pieces that I am making myself. (kick panels, area behind seat without gas tank, firewall, etc) Here's where I need some help, I want all of these parts in bright red but looking thru some of the vendors offerings it appears that these pieces colorwise don't always match so well. Does any one single company make all of these parts? If not, has anyone had any luck matching parts from various manufacturers or vendors? And for what it's worth, I'm not necessarily looking for the lowest price over quality. Any suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks y'all! |

Re: Sources for interior/upholstery parts
Don't expect a great color match on interior parts.They are made of different materials and usually fro different dye lots.Even getting it ll from one place usually eans they sourced from other places.It's the same with factory upholstery,the color match was not great back then either.Your best bet to get a perfect color match is to cover the entire interior with material from once source/dye lot.

Re: Sources for interior/upholstery parts
have you checked local with a upholstery shop about the seat and visors being recovered? my local shop did my car seats cheaper that what ordering was visors too. I didn't go exact stock design though just. a thought.
