guys... so sorry for going off topic. i just wanted to post to the community that i was able to finally get a match for that stupid volcano grey that porsche simply refuses to release.

body shops can do great work painting the back seat.

interior shops do great work air brushing. i had my front seat bolster done. looks amazing.

so if anyone needs volcano grey touch up... hit me up

Default Interior Paint Color

I bought some Arctic Silver touch up paint at the dealer and it matched the interior perfectly. I wanted to touch up the interior door handles and it matched perfect!

Would it be possible to vinyl wrap them?

I was watching for awhile as the removed some of the interior pieces to sand them down slightly and than spray them. They did all the interior with an airbrush sprayer and dye to match everything perfectly. I would definitely find someone that does airbrushing or buy the items and do it yourself. Maybe a place like this? http://airbrushpaintdirect.com/autoaircolorspaints
Any pics of the work they did? I am in Austin also and that might be a good option for me.

Don’t want to completely resurrect this thread from the dead. For those with graphite gray interior soft touch—I found the easiest way to eliminate these soft touch materials (strip, sand prep and paint). I’ve eliminated a lot of the soft touch wear items this way. It really updates the interior in a good way, while eliminating the heavy wear of the soft touch material (in my opinion.) If you diy its extremely cost effective and not that difficult

Anyone know of aftermarket interior paint for porsches?

I have a 1989 Porsche 928 S4 whose interior paint color is Porsche seat color code is Xn5.
I couldn't find Xn5 in the PET seats catalog.
The color approximates a "silver grey" and was a special leather option in 1989.

Any help much appreciated as its just a 1'' x 1'' spot i repaired with liquid leather but its an eyesore.
