Default retracting old ecklers statement

recently i responded about how well ecklers had filled my order for a whole interior. im assembling it as we type and i must admit i lost some faith in my statement. the dash, door panels, and interior dye are all DIFFERENT shades of the same color. ecklers must use different distributors for different parts. i was forced to dye all the parts so they would mnatch. so far the dash quality has been pretty good. the carpet goes in next. i wonder what color it will be

That is a problem that all of the vendors face. I would hate to be running the return desk for any of them.
I seem to recall that one of the vendors used to offer a dying service if you ordered a complete interior kit from them. That may have been the most logical way to correct the problem.
