I'm looking for a good source for Leopard Print Fabric. I have a 2006 Dodge Magnum and would like to use the fabric to wrap the center silver plastic piece.
It's surrounds the radio, heating controls and air ducts. So I'm looking for something that has some stretch to it and is not that heavy so I can get it to fit tight.
Later on I would like to maybe apply the fabric to the doors and maybe even accents to in the seats. I already know this is an odd request and I would like to keep this semi-serious.

Have you checked with local fabric stores? Seriously.

Yes I have. I'm not sure if was suitable for my applications. It was a velboa fabric. So it wasn't a leather or suede based product. It's a short haired cloth like substance. I'm just not sure how well something like that would hold up to wear. I found on line sites that had a simular product that they mentioned that it would be good for seat covers. I'm just a little unsure. I would rather have someone that has used it to tell me yes or no it would work. I found rod interiors that use to sell it and have been waiting to hear back on weither or not they can still get it. I have seen it used on a few vehicles as well. Mostly cadillacs and lincolns, emailed owners and have not hear anything back as of yet.
 
Thoughts?
The look I'm going for:
