Default Color matching vinyl

Where can I get my hands on vinyl to cover speaker boxes that is the closest thing to our charcoal interiors in regards to color and texture?

There are 2 options on going about this.

1.) Purchase vinyl that is the correct color and texture and be done.
2.) Purchase vinyl that is the correct texture and have it color matched to your interior color by a paint shop.

The 1.) choice is sometimes impossible. It is always hard to find the correct color especially after the car has been in the sun a couple of years. It will fade.

All that would have to be done is to wrap the panel/box/whatever and then bring it and a panel with the color on it to a paint shop that can mix vinyl dies. They can then mix it and spray the panel for you, or if you have a spray gun you can spray it yourself.

I know of a place to get vunyl but they are not a Sponsor.
