Why do we insist on black instrument panels in any case ? less reflection maybe ? I have a spare white instrument panel and don't want to paint it ......

I am making a new instrument panel for my ASW27. The original panel appears to have a textured overlay that looks similar to leather. As far as I can tell the panel was made from carbon fiber over a plug and then the texture was bonded to the panel most likely using a vacuum bagging method. It is bonded so well that it may have been part of the layup process. I would like to duplicate the same look if possible. I am looking for some help regarding possible texture materials and procedures to provide a new panel with the original manufactures results.
Thanks,

I have always had a grey panel. Wonder if the color of Russian cockpits would be good for gliders?
