I am looking to redo the batphone console in my car. The interior is Classic Gray including the dash top and lower bolster and it is the "full leather" that comes in a tt. I want to cover the batphone replacement panel in black material that matches the black portion of my dash which contains the radio, HVAC controls and switches. Is the black stuff leather? and whatever it is,, where can I find a matching piece?

Doug - Was this piece yours originally or did you buy off ebay? I've been looking for one so was curious.
WRT to leather covering, I purchased hide from Veteran Company. I used the leather to recover the door panel inserts, center console and door bins on a rear seat delete kit (recovering all these was easier than I expected if you are patient). If you find some of my previous posts where I included pics on my interior you can see that the match is really good w/ my black vinyl interior pieces. I don't think that part of your dash is leather and if it isn't you can probably recover it while you're doing this.
