its hard to match with so many vendors selling "red mod" material..with that said i have found most of "red mod" interior pieces on an auction site and then i matched the material to the "red mod" ...i did get a leather boot and e-break shift boot from redline goods and told them to match the "red mod" as close as they could and its almost a dead on match

Automotive Paint stores that mix paint will have the right formula to match perfectly with the right semigloss look.

Inside colors are just like exterior paint they have color chips listed in the chip books, the additives are different because there is no gloss to the finish when dry.

Wonder how palsit-dip would look? I'm contemplating trying it, then if you don't like it, peel it off.

I rewrapped my interior with red leather from redline goods. If you look at their site, in the how-to section, I actually created that writeup when I did mine. It was a PITA, but definitely worth it. And much cheaper than swapping out my black interior for factory pieces.
