MBTEX Beige 8000
« on: November 25, 2019, 23:13:50 »
I’m looking for a seat cover back in Beige MBTEX 8000 (141 interior).  I’m thinking someone might be out there with one that was removed for a new interior upgrade.  I only need one but if a set is available, I’d purchase both.  Unfortunately this color is NLA and I’ve contacted just about everyone who supplies MBTex or auto vinyl.

Were you able to source this material? I am also looking for a supplier of this material to recover my kick and door panels.

Nope.  I ended up purchasing the same color but in leather from Hans Reinke.  It’s a spot on match color wise.  Apparently Reinke purchased the vats and formula from Roser who provided DB leather back in the day.  Personally I couldn’t be more pleased.
