I found a Mohawk Distributor about 30 miles from me so I went this past weekend and bought a few cans of Toner in different shades.

I tried a light dusting of Deep Red Mahogany on this section of the front and it looks pretty nice, the stuff is really dark though so when I say "light dusting" it was really just that, any more and it would be too dark to see the pattern, perhaps just right for the base though.

The last picture is from an eBay auction and shows what it should look like, it gives a nice color reference, or at least as nice as possible given the variables in photography, it seems to match up OK with the undamaged parts of my set at least.

The bottom doors (one door, one dummy door actually) seem to be a darker color than the top sections, that could just be the different way the grain reflects the light though.
