Dont waste your time with SBT! As an answer to the question it is a 10yr out of date cliche. When replacement fabric was impossible to buy new, SBT had a stock of some patterns, but thats long since used up on (probably over-priced) repairs and they dont have any Porsche fabric now and havent for a good while.

In the mean time supplies have become available from Germany, from suppliers such as the one in my link, and you can now buy new material off the roll at an excellent price.

A bit harsh to say, "Don't bother with SBT".
I just travelled up to speak to the owner, Dave Nunn, this morning. He has in stock, I actually saw it, various colours of the Porsche logo fabrics.
Unfortunately he didn't have the colour I require i.e. Marine Blue (TPC 000 000 00 6HZ).
I did buy off him a matching second-hand seat cover, which he will be fitting early next year.
The colour shade differences, in say, types of blues, are very subtle. You cannot know for definite from photos.
I had bought Cobalt Blue (TPC 000 000 00 7ZK) Porsche logo fabric from Le Mans fabrics, New Zealand.
I arrived this week. Not cheap.
Unfortunately I got the colour wrong. My bad, as they say nowadays.
So if anyone wants 3.5 meters of Cobalt Blue (TPC 000 000 00 7ZK) Porsche logo fabric, it is for sale.
If not, I will ebay it soon.

Indeed. I meant in this circumstance do not bother. SBT do excellent work, but the 'try SBT' standard reply to fabric questions in clichéd now and at least a decade past its prime.
