Dying My Interior????

I have a reallll intruiging question....i always wanted a black interior ( hating the stock tan/creamish look ) and i recently was lookin through some cardomain pages and someone dyed their interior .....now this raises my curiosity, what if i wanted to dye the carpet, dash, and all the seats....i know the carpet and seats would be do-able...but what would i do about the dash?....that and what kinda stuff would i use to dye or spray?...

sell your car and buy a car with a black interior ... if you wanna change your interior color, its A LOT of work.... you wont be able to dye your seats, theyll fade fast...get seat covers or new seats .... putting in or dying a carpet is a days worth of work .... you can paint your dash but itll look like crap unless you take it out and paint it properly....buy a black dash and have someone put it in... if you wanna paint any kind of plastic or vinyl, use DUPONT duplicolor spray paint

Yea...thats my interior....it does fade rather quickly, and the carpet loses its softness. Its quite annoying..but i retouch every couple of months. Just a temporary fix until i get leather

You can either get custom leather from a site like katskinz.com and install it urself......or go to junk yards and hopefully find a set of leather seats in good condition for a good price.
