cabin material. Any new/old stock supplies around?

I have water stains around the two port windows over the dinette table. I tried cleaning but it looks like they're permanent.

My dilema is I can't find anything to match what's already there. I also can't find any color that really goes with it either. I can easily replace the section on the port side of the boat if I could find a match.

I looked around on the boat thinking I could steal a piece from the back of a door for now but nothing is big enough.

Any ideas? I though about doing a doing a paint color match and misting it on with my trim gun. Might be worth a shot.

and it looks really good. I took a swatch of the fabric and went to HD and got a sample size of color matched paint. I then misted it on with my small HVAC gun. I thinned it out first.

It's 100x better than it was. I had to do something NOW because the port holes were leaking and I didn't want to take the inside part of the window out again.

I ran a bead around the outside of the port frame and then between the inside/outside halves. It shouldn't leak again for a long time.

Just ordered some stuff from Bob and will ask him about the material too.
