Thumbs up

my entire interior is black except for the damn tan carpet. it seems it is impossible to find the carpet for these cars, so i started to investigate carpet dye. i found a couple kits that seem rather easy enough. spray on the dye, scrub it in, and wala. it does, however, raise some suspision. im not sure how the outcome will be. i have never dyed carpet before. has anyone every done this before? please any input would help tons. thanks peps!!

looks like my best bet is to just go to a hardware store and pick up some black carpet and do it myself. i guess i can pull out the ol steamer and try molding it to the floor.

They changed their name, or created a separate division, or something: black dragon automotive



I don't think they list their entire catalog online, you may have to order one (it's free).
