Interior options with Oyster

Ironman273 · 11-08-2017, 10:35 PM

Are there different types of interiors with the Oyster color? I bought a second-hand door panel to replace mine that has some damage on it. The color was listed as Oyster and the (small) picture looked like the color was correct but when I got it, it seems to have a lot more grain than my door panel. I still need to clean it up but the difference seemed to be obvious.

Your car may be equipped with nappa leather and the replacement panel is likely dakota leather.

Thanks. Apparently I got the wrong leather. Sure enough I have Nappa. That was a waste of $200

The color has rubbed away on the leather, anyway to get it back?...Can it be re dyed?
