Default Sandstone roof cloth supplier ?

Anyone know who can supply a proper match to our Sandstone roof cloth.

I've had five samples posted to me so far and not one is a match.

My project car spent its entire life on the south coast, so with the better weather (and heat) the roof cloth and door cards are goosed.

On the plus side the metalwork on the underside is in really good nick.

Have you tried Woolies in Market Deeping, Lincolnshire? They have loads of trim etc and supply many restorers.

Specifically here:-

Had headlining material from martrim that was a good match to retrim the headlining and sunroof sunshade of our rover 200 brm. Colour was spot on and a good match for sunvisors and A pillars.

I know it's been a while, but did you find a match for the sandstone headlining?
