I get my vinyl from Grey's Trim in Guelph. I've even managed to get some good products from Apple auto glass. I generally get factory match vinyl. This is not the same as HF (heat forming) vinyl. But it will be fairly easy to work with. HF vinyl can take lots of heat and wrap around anything pretty much, but it's thick and isn't available in as many colours. I have had good success with the factory vinly. I would suggest you use that. I would also make sure you have the proper glue. Use contact cement designed to for automitive use. Otherwise you will be re-working your panels in a few months.

I second that. Mike at Grey's Trim is a great source. A fantastic upholsterer as well. I've used him for many custom vehicle builds, very happy with the results.
