Is there a difference in carbon fiber weave patterns between vendors and OEM?

My car already has OEM CF door sills and I was thinking of adding more cf to the interior but I want the weave patterns to be similar. The bigger vendors that I know of are MA Carbon and DB Carbon. Since I have OEM CF parts already, do I need to stick with OEM or can I go with another vendor? I'm not looking for a 100% match of CF weave patterns but something close enough where it's not easily noticeable.

both of those suppliers provide similar quality and style to OEM - you shouldn't have to worry as it should be pretty similar... worst case you could always sell your OEM carbon pieces and buy their pieces to ensure a close of match as possible.
