I have a customer with a 1971 Nissan Skyline GTR, who is looking to have one of the seats reupholstered to look as original as possible. I am keeping the original insert material. I am in Canada, and can't find what I need through any of my suppliers. Anyone here know where I could possibly find a similar shiny, smooth black vinyl in the US? English Pub by Naugahyde would be exactly what I would need as far as sheen and weight, but it is too distressed.

English Pub is the exact same oz per yard/gsm as the FR vinyl I use for some aircraft seating, so I didn't think it would be an issue to use it for automotive seating. I'll check the Allante. Thanks for your feedback.
