In case you didn't know, I work in Design and have access to many resources.

I've just been speaking to a guy who can make a custom run of imprinted leather to match the original pattern of the 914.
His off the cuff estimate is $25-35 sq. ft. depending on the quantity i wanted to order. Thats without tax and shipping.
So I asked him to knock up a sample piece.

It would be available in half hide (27sq. ft) pieces, which i think would cover an interior, maybe someone else knows the exact amount needed for an interior?

Doorpanels, dash and seat cushions require how much?

Just guaging interest here so let me know how it sounds. Should there be the interest I could make it happen.
With luck, the sample will get here in time for me to bring it along to the WCC for anyone to see who might be keen.

Who needs leather though, right?
