Dyeing my interior
I hate the two tone tan and black scheme I have in my car right now and after pricing replacment parts for swaping the interior to straight black i decided that it was a little bit too much on the expensive side. On the site i was looking at the interior pieces i saw they also sell interior dye to dye the tan sections black. Anyone have any experiance doing this kind of work and have any info or suggestions on prepping and paint the interior pieces. I figure since im dyeing from a light tan color to black it shouldnt be too bad.

ive repainted numerous interiors, its work, pulle everything wipe it all clean with alcohol or something to remove armor all and trash, tape of, use interior paint, or the krylon fusion works good on some plastics, theres some vinyl paints you can get its not to bad but you apropriate paint for each material, dont rush, keep it clean

Re: Dyeing my interior
I hate the "titanium" tan interior in my RSX. My wife had to have the White RSX and it only came in "titanium" interior. How hard is it do a complete interior? Actually just the A/B/C pillars, overhead trim, back seat panels, trunk panels to black. Seats, carpets, and door panels would be easy get type R stuff.
How does dyeing work? Do you soak the entire part? Someone explain to me

And hopefully by that time I'll have a great deal to offer you on some black leather seats to match

Re: Dyeing my interior
ya carpet isnt that expensive, the back seats are getting ditched for a RSD, and hopefully i'll be able to get a black fr500 wheel too. I would go with a full on race wheel but i dont have a hook up for inspections. As far as the seats go i dunno i guess that depends how much you want for them i was just gonna put in a cheap pair of black racing seats until i had some dough to get some nice ones.
