Basement Panel Fabric
Has anyone out there found a source for a close match to the fabric GD wraps around the basement panels?
I plan to reconfigure my 2021 310GK basement to get a bit more usable space and my OCD won't allow me to not try to make it match.
Thanks!

Yes, I called GD customer service and was transferred to parts. Don't remember the name. Gave her the VIN and she looked through the parts list for that model (she said it was about 70 pages). I looked on the website for the manufacturer of the fabric, didn't look like they sold to end customers. She told me that since I wasn't working with a dealer on a repair, I could buy direct.
It sounded like this was a new service. She mentioned something about this only being the fourth week online, I wasn't sure if she meant due to Covid. I didn't ask.
Gave her a credit card number, and Bob's your uncle. I was amazed.

I'd really be interested in seeing pictures of what owners have done to expand or modify their basement walls. Access panels and/or other ideas. Thanks in advance!

When you get to the right person and/or make a well-placed relationship... Could be she's new too. The Customer Service office space was doubled late last year and it was clear when I was there they needed more able bodies with the skyrocketed unit ownership.
RV surplus shops in Northern Indiana and the next State up sell the last of the spools really cheap too. I bought just about 200 square feet for $16.
You could get dizzy imbibing all the ways we 5er owners mod the basements and bulkheads! Lol! Heck, I'm seriously considering putting in a PEX manifold when I clear out the rest of the vinyl tube!
My tip to you, if you camp in freezing weather, install a switched house current bulb socket with 100W incandescent bulb behind the bulkhead on the wet side. Then when cold weather camping with full hookups, just turn the light on and use your electric fireplace/space heater as you won't need to run the furnace or have a trickling faucet to prevent freezing! The bulb will be enough.Rob & Nikki + Cloverfield

Two options: 1) I cut the existing panel and reconfigured the space without having to acquire any additional materials (other than some 1X for backing strips and some L-brackets). 2) Shops that do car audio installations carry the material for use as speaker covering (sub-woofers). I would try option #1 first and see if you need anything else.

I used the following (slightly different grey than OEM but close enough) - same material though. Need 3M - 777 adhesive spray to attach it to the wood backing.
