Colors off on door handles
1976 light buckskin interior
I bought new buckskin door panels and interior handles from Willcox. The handles totally did not match (had almost a greenish tint to the beige color). I sent the handles back. Have you guys had any better luck with other vendors? I really don’t want to dye new parts that are supposed to match.
thanks

Many of these parts are produced by different vendors. Expecting them to match is likely not going to happen. In fact, it didn't happen with the various interior parts when the car was NEW!!
If you really want all the interior pieces to match, you MUST recolor them yourself. And, if the pieces are not installed (free to clean/recolor), you can't really find an easier project than recoloring your interior pieces. If I had all the interior pieces loose, I could clean them and recolor them in ONE day. This is not brain surgery; just DO IT.
