: 70 Pearl Interior help

Trying to get my car ready for Pomona Super Chevy in two weeks and ran into a little snag that I need some help with. The PUI interior is truly "Pearl" (off white), and the seat backs that I bought from a supplier back east are white, even though they called them Pearl. The vinyl and the plastic does not match very close at all. Question is should there actually be some contrast or do I need to respray my plastic to make it more off white? Any suggestions or experience with this would be appreciated.

Hello Gregg,

I also went through this with the pearl interior in my '70.

I ordered pearl spray cans from Ausley's Chevelle, and sprayed the seat backs. They match the vinyl very well now. Years ago I had pearl interior paint mixed up at the local paint supplier to spray the door handle/grabs, which also came out great.

Good luck....Joe.
