had a fully intact jack bag from the 90 S4 and noticed a few jacks for sale on ebay but no bags on their own for sale, as its NLA i thought i would get some made.
tried all the local shops to no avail.
the www is a mine field of thicknesses, colour and texture, but after many orders of samples later, finally found what i think is an exact match, for colour, texture and thickness
obviously the original is 34yrs old, its lived a life and pretty sure will never have been washed, so was needing to find an exact match of what it would have looked like when it was new.
then found a local one woman small shop who does alterations to clothes etc who said she could do an exact match if i left her the original one.
today is 5 weeks later and sure enough i think it looks like it would have when new
i am sure you guy's over the pond can get them made locally but anybody in the UK wanting one please let me know.
will be a few weeks until i get a few more made as i was not going to order a large amount of material until i saw the end result in my hand, and bless her, she is a busy lady.
cheers
