Default JDM style fabric for armrests....

I'm looking for a fabric that resembles the JDM red for the side armrests and center armrest... Or maybe even a blue style... Anyone know where this could be purchased or has anyone done this and has pics to show?

Sparco sells there red in bulk. But I don't have a clue where you could get the Recaro red.

Try Stitchcraft in HUntignton Beach, Cali. Or even katzkin.

id wait to see if you could find the panels on ebay from a real one...the ABP R's interiors are blue (sides, carpet/mats, recaros) I believe the rest are either black/red.

I wrapped mine in the Recaro fabric that is on my seats.....I am in Long Island NY, but I am sure the guy I got mine from will ship to you. I got it from AutoMat in Hicksville NY.

If you need more info email me at Accord32@aol.com.

I would like to get some of that Recaro Fabric.

I want to do my armrest in the black Recaro fabric.

I sent you an Email.

Can you give me some more info on where you got yours and how hard it was to do?

Thanks

Allen

is it a tweed fealing type of fabric? and is hicksville ny a joke or are you serious?

suede doesn't look good if water touches it, rain/snow no good!

No Hicksville is in fact a town in Long Island.....Don't know how it got it's name, it is by no means "hicks ville" .

As for the fabric , the kind that I got is the same that is used on the SRD 2's not the suade ones like JDM recaro's. There is also another material used on the SRD's that is more like tweed.

The local wholesaler of Recaro by me is AutoMat and as we know, it is in Hicksville.They should have a website as well.
