Hi all
Im hoping you guys can help me out. Im rebuilding a 1976 2.0 914 I imported from the US and currently refurbing and retrimming the interior. The original interior is orange plaid and vinyl. I purchased a couple of meters or reproduction material from AA and when it arrive it just looked the wrong shade of orange. It looks peachy and light orange rather than a vibrant deep orange like my original seats are (well the non faded bits at least). AA are claiming the material supplied is correct factory spec and I just cant see how it can be. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1121.photobucket.com-12653-1377275400.1.jpg) Can someone comment on this please? For info I also asked SMS for a sample and it is the same as the material from AA so either AA get the material from the same supplier as SMS and its the wrong colour or my seats are not correct. Help!! :-) Many Thanks Andrew |
