I'm in the process of restoring a 1978 124, black with red interior, and can't find red interior door panels, or anybody that can make them for me. Does anyone have any possible leads?
Much appreciated.

Re: Red door panels
Vinyl paint actually works pretty well, and I have used Duplicolor vinyl paint with reasonable results. Whether you could find it in your shade of red is another question.

Have you tried a local upholstery shop? My local shop did wonders with replacing my upholstery at an affordable price. Mine was a mom and pop operation and they were great to work with. My car is orange with a black Interior. They suggested black marine vinyl with orange stitching and piping. It looks stunning and I won an out of town car show with it in May.
