RE: US source Alcantara...

["Avi Meron" <avi@cosmoslink.net>]

Derek,
I have already given the alcantara source a  # of times so it's no big
secret.
Maybe Paul missed my numerous posts on the subject.
I have even sent to Dave over 25 samples of the material. I am sure that if
I can find it, it must be ava. in other places. If somebody is interested I
can again source some samples.
The store is:
UFO (Upholstery Fabric Outlet)
1918 Roosevelt Ave
National city, CA 91950
619 477 9341
Take care,
Avi

Thanks to Frank for divulging that audi do purchase directly from
Alcatara SpA... ;-)

US Distributor is Purcell Letchinger Group.  Mucho info can be found
at...www.plgroupinc.com/Pages/Alcan1.htm.

Unfortunately, I plan to purchase less than the required 600 yards min.
for custom colors.

There are 48 stock colors available...and I suspect that Audi AG uses
their own custom colors.

My plan is to replace the Royal Blue alcan seat panels with the same (or
very similar) Silver/Grey found on the other exterior combinations.  I
would like to keep everything as simple as possible...therefore i am
willing to purchase the factory door trim inserts.  But I'll need to
source a few yards of the same color fabric to reapply to the seats.

Still waiting on PN#s.  Someone has them...

But Avi...Please DO TELL your source as I'm only 300m north.

How about right here..............I have a source in CA (San Diego), I
get
the feeling that going to Italy might be a bit costly!
Take care,
Avi
BTW, they have at least 20 different colors
