Hi all, I think I should be trying to locate Elephant Hide Black Vinyl for the finish to my GT interior. Any ideas on UK suppliers.
I tried Southbound.

its just not done any more.
southbound do do a really nice quality leather which is pretty close but is quite expensive.

There are only 2 suppliers and they are in the States, Auto's International and International Mercantile, both vinyls differ Auto's is a slightly finer grain. I went for the Mercantile product. service was excellent and all the correct edging strip is also supplied. Dave I have some left over if you want to look at it before you order. I am in Barton on Sea about 30 minutes from you.
Regards Nigel
