I just wanted to get some opinions from some of you "experts" out there. I have a 90 Supra with a dark blue interior. I wrote about this a while ago and managed to resolve my vinyl door panel problem. The guy did a very nice repair on the torn area, you can't even notice it....but painted it a little light. The panels are a navy blue and for some reason he painted it more of sky blue. Why I don't know. I went back to the guy and he will not redo it. He says, " You can't get it exact." Unless you paint both panels at the same time, with the same paint, it's very hard to get an exact match. Anyway, what I have done is used some darkening agents like Black Wow and other stuff from auto geek. Also believe it or not olive oil helps to darken vinyl. The two panels now look pretty much the same! Just wondering if you guys know of anything that darkens vinyl that is not a dye. I really don't want to start messing with that. Also I am thinking of putting on one of those aftermarket dashboard trim panels. Has anybody done this? Also what do you think of a dark cherry red burlwood dashboard in a dark blue interior. Wood burl may look out of place. Perhaps a nice black carbon fiber, or maybe blue carbon fiber. Too many choices guys. Just curious if anyone has done this, which company did they use, and what color dashboard would look good. Car is dark navy blue interior with dark blue exterior. Thanks.
