Default Where to buy felt?

I would like to cover a new sub box with the same gray fabric/felt that covers the back deck - and I cannot find it anywhere
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Have you tried contacting Porsche directly?

Maybe try asking for some samples from Polymat and see if one might match.

You might try a fabric shop (e.g., there used to be JoAnns), craft store (e.g., Michaels), or an upholstery shop.

If push comes to shove, there is always Amazon... but it may be a hit or miss for the "perfect" match.

You could try a car audio shop, specifically one that does installation. They used to sell that kind of carpet to cover sub boxes etc.

Porsche sells a very thin, very effective, felt roll with good adhesive. Dealers have it.

Product Search (albrightssupply.com)

Search for "Synergy Suede". If you're covering a surface that has imperfections, gluing leather or fabric will magnify that imperfection. You may want to use the synergy suede Headliner which has a 2mm foam backing. The synergy suede also has unbacked material which is without the foam.
