Not to be a smart ass but have you tried local upholstry shops? It may possibly have been something for couches or even clothing and Porsche decided to be "hip" and use it..

i've tried every avenue i could think of. i eventually did find a place online, smsautofabrics.com, that had something that's very close, but ultimately not the same. if i can't find the oem stuff, i'll use what they sent, it's very good quality and i think looks better than the original. but at $75/yard...
