Default Source for matching non-perforated leatherette fabric?

My mother has generously offered to make a cover for the rollbar I'm installing in my car, but I've had no luck locally finding any fabric that even comes close to matching the texture/color of the OEM Opal Gray leatherette in my '99.5 A4.

Before someone says "buy a seat cover and cut it up," understand this isn't an option as I'd have to buy several of them to yield enough non-perforated fabric and even then, pieces would have to be stitched together, which wouldn't be very attractive.

Suggestions, anyone?

Default well your post wasn't clear if you went to an auto upholstery shop or Joann Fabrics

Speakign of which, I found a "close to" but slightly darker than grey leatheretter fabric there once. Pretty comparable
