Grey/green Alcantara is a problem. Genuine automotive Alcantara is very limited in terms of color. There are, however, greys and greens that would combine really well with grey/green leather, for an outstanding 2 tone effect.
The Grey/green leather is no problem at all.

I have installed a brand new dash but changed the color to grey / green from a sample of the leather I took from one of the visors. I still have to spray a coat of dull clear to cut the glare, but it matches the rest of the car well. Roger is lucky to have found a NOS grey/green dash.

I have a Felsengruen car with the grey-green dash, steering wheel, door panels, carpeting and center console but the seats are linen.
The taupe-like steering wheel leather is an absolute thing of beauty in this car. It looks a little beat up, and I've contemplated installing a 930S wheel, but I just can't stop digging the color of the grey-green leather. The first three pics below are from the previous owner just prior to selling the car to me, and the fourth is taken by me on a vacation getaway weekend in Destin, Fla. Regards, -rick.

I looked at a granite green 86.0 here in Orange Country about 2 years ago- overall a nice car, had bent valves at one point but had been nicely repaired. It had an absolutely beautiful interior:

I know this is probably not a viable option at this point, but I still lust for a grey-green sport seat for the driver's side. And I still have two sets of grey-green seats, so I can rebuild one of the driver's seats into a sport seat, unless anyone wants to trade for a regular g-g one.
I also have a Konig race seat (two actually) which I had planned to install into the 928 and the other one into my 914/6 which I'm selling, so I will have a spare Konig seat available. This is a great seat in black velour material and can be adjusted to fit individual body types, as well as offer a few degrees of adjustment once mounted into the car.
If I can get a sport seat in grey-green, I would probably toss the Konig seat because the factory seat is far superior except for weight.

Thanks Nicole, you have been a bit quicker than me!
That grey-green interior looks fantastic with the wood interior trim!
Also Paul did a fantastic job (he cannot remember...) doing a cargo cover and some other stuff for me. The leather he used was called "slate grey" and matched the original colour quite perfectly!
Yes, I really am lucky having this colour.
Outside colour is nil-green.
Greetings from Germany!
