Default redline leather interior pieces

so im looking to replace my shift boot, possibly my ebrake boot and wanted to do a custom headrest. I was recommended to redline leather and they look to have nice stuff. problem is they don't offer anything in ebony. I am very picky about that stuff and it needs to match, so basically I am wondering who has some pics to show how well their pieces match. they offer black which would be the closest. I browsed around a bit and its hard to tell from some of the pics I saw

I ordered the Charcoal Leather. I have not installed it yet. It appears to be very close to Ebony. The quality is VERY high. I recommend using Redline.

Anyway you could get a side by side comparison?

have you tried contacting them to see if they have what you need? Sometimes, they dont advertise everything they have for sale or they might be able to make it. Wont hurt to try.

You know I didnt even think about calling them to see if they have a direct match for ebony. I will give that a shot, thanks

If you go to my youtube page, there's some in car videos as well that you can see if they match well enough. I think they do.

That looks pretty good but I can tell the color difference and that will bug me. I really dig the headrest covers so I might just suck it up and deal with it
