    I bought some years ago at JoAnns, I would guess they could order it is not in stock. What color are you looking for?

    Looking for white angel hair, but rust/brown would work too....other thoughts on interior was to do a cheeta, jaguar, tiger print on the seats...founds lot of material on line for them...just no angel hair.

    walk into just about any fabric store and they will have it. You may not find the super thin, long wispy stuff, but you can get long (2") thick white fur, and black and brown and green, and..

    I think you are looking for faux fur, angel hair is spun fibergl*** that was used as a show display.

    JoAnns faux fur is pretty quality stuff. Just remember, once it gets dirty, it is next to impossible to clean. So Id velcro it down, opposed to gluing it.

    Good luck with the car!

    Yep, I've bought it at JoAnn's before. Use caution though, not only does it hold crud, it sheds like friggin crazy!

    Hey man, don't feel gay about hittin' places like JoAnns, and Han**** Fabrics. Sometimes you can find a deal on upholstery fabrics at these places. Savin' money ain't gay.:D

    Weird, mine doesn't shed at all. At least, I haven't noticed it, but it's confined to my package tray and I have matching white interior (but black carpet). I do, however, have a nice ***ortment of insects trapped in it

    Yes, the same name for two different things. Both are very cool if done right.
