Interior material colour compatibility.

I like the seat material on the Classic Industries recovering kits but I'd prefer the headliner kit that comes from Hawks. Anyone have any idea how close the colours would be for say charcoal?

Thanks

I got my Carmine headliner from Classic and the color was spot on.

I live in New Zealand and they are often reluctant to send stuff to me, I'll have a go though, thanks.

Yeah, but I'm wondering what the colour match between two different suppliers is like.

The thing is,they might get their material from two different suppliers.I got all my Carmine interior from Classic,I know they use PUI Interiors.And also, when you order their headliner it comes with a roll of material to do your Sail Panels.

Hmmm, so it might pay to get everything from the same supplier.

Places like Classic and Hawks will sell to me but mostly these places are not keen to send samples for free and having them shipped is kind of expensive. I'll check that other place out too, thanks.
