I just sent this as RTF - so it may not make it through the filters...... resending in plain text. sorry
As I said in my earlier emails - I thought I had ordered all at the same time. what I thought were the kits were left over (non-matching) pieces from other projects. I tried all of the usual suspects to match that seat/trim kit - to no avail. I did receive another possibility for sample/color matching yesterday but until I get some resolution with this particular supplier I am just frustrated and 'flapping in the wind'.
I did talk with the owner as well as the shop manager - they know of my frustration and say that they understand. It just 'takes time to get it right'. For that reason I am not going to pull the plug on this effort - at least not yet.
To some degree, since it is the cappings and dash, if they aren't 100% perfect (but reasonably close - i.e. same graining/slightly different color), there will be enough of a separation and consistency (all of the cappings & dash) that it won't be discernable to most.
Thanks to all that did respond
It is great having the list back and operational. I was beginning to go through withdrawal...
