went to a local upholsterer's and asked for the most flexible grained vinyl they had.

it's about 3 times as flexible as the the stuff i'd previously got from a kit car show.

Wherever you get it from just make sure they have a goodly amount of it OR buy double what you need to begin with. Trying to match vinyls (if you decide to make something else to match) is definitely tricky... hence me ending up making 8 metres of hand-stitched wing-piping(!) because none of the local trim places had ones coated in a vinyl that matched my tunnel top trim....

Maidstone market - turn off big roundabout onto Tonbridge Road then 1st left as if you're going to the Courts or B&Q . With County Courts on your left and B&Q on the right the market is straight ahead under the cinema and nightclub.

The stalls are not named but he is always at the SW corner of the covered area (about 3rd row in from the B&Q side and along to the right.)

I think I paid about £18 for 3 m x 2.5m
