Alright, still working on my install and I have question for you guys.

Back in the day ;) , I thought I used to be able to buy color matched vinyl dye. There was a parts and paint store back home that sold it. You told them the interior color and they could look it up and mix it up for you. It was sold so plastic trim panels could be color matched if you got them out of a junkyard.

Has anyone ever used it or even know what I am talking about? It's been like seven years since I did it, I just can't quite remember HOW I did it?:thinking:

Or have I just lost my mind?:screwy: :screwy: :thinking:

I want to try and keep everything matching the stock interior.

Look for an Auto Color near you...there is 1 in the Lilburn area.

They sell SEM dyes for plastic. If none of those stock colors match, I think they can mix up a batch for you. You will have to take a piece of plastic that you are trying to match. Then you get an aerosol sprayer from Home Depot for about $12-15 and you are off to the races.
