Subject: [Leica] M3 vulcanite question

I have three M3s- two that are good users, and a third that is as close to
'mint' as I have ever seen.  Unfortunately, I discovered this afternoon
that there is a tiny piece of vulcanite that has broken off of the hinged
door.  And the vulcanite around the break (just a millemeter or two) is not
adhered to the metal. The vulcanite on the door should be entirely replaced.

Is there any repair person who replaces vulcanite that might have the right
style?  I know Leica USA has replacement vulcanite but the grain looks
nothing like the oringinal. This has me really depressed........:(

Thanks for any help,
Rich
