Source for leather?

Hi, All. Does anyone know of a current source for Bridge of Weir leather? I'd like to have some panels reupholstered, but I can't find anyone who carries it. Redpants no longer has access, and Aston Martin responded "Unfortunately, we are unable to supply." I emailed Bridge of Weir about two weeks ago, but they haven't responded.
My biggest challenge is that the color is "Phantom Grey," which looks black except when placed next to actual black. In other words, it'll be tough to match with anything except the real thing.

Forgive me for asking, but are you positive it's Phantom Grey? Use your VIN and make sure, as Phantom Grey really does look grey rather than black.

That aside, I would reach out to Relicate Leather here in the US. They should be able to help you source a quality match to your car. Best of luck!

Thanks for your caution, but yes, my VIN (and my car's build sheet) specify Phantom Grey. This photo is of my interior, and the steering wheel is Obsidian Black while the leather panels are Phantom Grey. Obviously, lighting conditions play a big role.
But thanks for the link to Relicate. I'll follow up with them and also call BOW.
