Default Red Leather In 40th Ann Z

So i had a thought, I want to do another cf steering wheel and wrap the sides in red leather to match the seats/panels in the 40th anniversary z. I can buy the leather but im not sure the color. Anyone know anything about the name or where i can find a sample to match??? Any help would be aappreciated.
The wheel will look like this, but red on the sides instead of black.
Thoughts??

you might be better off taking it to an upholstery shop and having them bring samples out to the car and see what matches closest.

That would be best I know. Butt I don't have a 370. I just had the idea to make a wheel to match that interior

I need some samples to do either, that's the only problem....and buying the red parts from Nissan to get a match would cost a fortune.

Anyone with a 40th anniversary I'd be willing to give a super discount on some cf work if you could send me a small sample of your red material or leather....just snip a tiny little piece from somewhere you never see so I can send it to my upholstery guy and get a matching piece. The back of thedoor panel has alot of excess material on the insert around the edges and no one would ever know it was taken off. I just need like a square inch of material....or even the bottom of the seat would be simple to snip a piece. PM me please if anyone can help.
