L4nky808 Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 The one thing I've never understood is that, in my job, I always use my spare time to get as far ahead as I can (to ensure my life is made easier and so that I can give 110% to everything I do without rushing). With the motor trade (painters/mechanical) everything is always far more important until that car is ready to be collected - at which point it becomes a priority and is then never finished in time. There is nothing more frustrating than going to collect your car and turning up to find it untouched/unfinished - yet when you arrive everyone just seems to be stood around chatting/drinking tea/playing pranks on the apprentice/putting cars onto the ramp that arrive as you get there. I am friends with quite a few mechanics, and all of them will take forever to do a simple job by chatting/answering mobile phones/getting sidetracked with something unimportant. I hope pace picks up for you soon mate, I can't wait to see your car finished!!

Cannockwolf Posted June 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 I dropped off all my interior with Dave Haden Upholstery in Walsall Wood today and chose the leather to match cinnamon, thanks to DJ Syxx I think I have a decent match but trying to match to a photo is difficult my two choices which i went with Tan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz 330 Cs Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Damn Jim, your ex mate seriously took the p*ss, he had your money then made the excuse of having "paying work" in so couldn't do yours ? Cheeky prick, I'd have lost my patience with him a LOT sooner than you did Cannockwolf and M3NXN 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyJames Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Harvest is looking more like cinnamon to me, but that tan leather looks nice. Would be easier to keep clean to. [emoji4] Cannockwolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannockwolf Posted June 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 based on DJ Syxx's pics harvest is too orange, even so I prefer the tan though JimmyJames 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyJames Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 I'd love to have rawhide in mine but it'd probably get marks on it easy. That combo above is gorgeous! [emoji7] Cannockwolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sive s Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 The harvest looks more like Saddle brown. When i changed mine , i was gonna go for tan. But wanted something different. Both look nice mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Syxx Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Hmmm tough call. Leaning more towards the harvest but tan could also pass too. Can they not do you a colour match if you supply then with a colour code? sive s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L4nky808 Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 I originally thought harvest from the original photos but looking at the photo above, with the shadow over the blue, the tan looks a closer shade when comparing it directly to the car picture underneath. As Syxx says above though, it'd be worth requesting a colour match if they can do it [emoji106] Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannockwolf Posted June 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 trust me the photos don't look true its so difficult, the tan is nicer in person though, the harvest, which was my first choice, looked a bit orange in person, the only place I have found to match is here http://www.ukhide.co.uk/automotive/ ill give them a call Monday, but I am happy with that tan. sive s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
