1986 BMW 325es Pearl Beige (0156) seat vinyl

I have one bolster(seat back) on the drivers side sport seat, thats pearl beige, the vinyl is worn... needs to be replaced.

The factory part 51-93-1-911-206 vinyl in meter roll (NLA)
52-10-1-933-484 seat back cover (NLA)

Does anyone know were a source for replacement vinyl. I have order vinyle for a couple of my OT cars from SMS in Portland, Or. I don't think they handle European upholstery.

no one ?

SMS is primarily american cars, but they've been able to match some of the BMW cloths pretty closely if I send samples.

You'd likely be better off taking the seat to a shop and having them deal with the headache of matching the vinyl.

You could also try original auto.

Got the vinyl sample today...looks great... may need to order a minimum of 1 yard of the bulk material... World Upholstery & Trim, great web site... responded fast to my request for a sample... I can now fix the side bolster of my sport seat.
