cliff,
go to your local auto body supply store and they can mix mar-hyde vynal
paint in almost any shade or tint you want! you can dye the remaining
pieces you want to do. but remember to take serious time in cleaning the
vynal prior to painting it or you might experience peeling from poor
adhesion to the vynal. ask the paint store folks what they reccomend for
"surface prep" prior to aplication of the vynal paint / dye.
chuck.
