I thought about it over the weekend and asked my dad about doing a recolor to my interior,now he has redone leather on our show car and his mercedes so he knows a little bit about interior.▓ I never asked him about going black

what im thinking of doing, my grey leather shows every little nasty stain and i just dont like the color of it,▓ I plan to do the dash (grey parts) black as well but leave everything else grey, my carbon fiber stuff on and the carpet will stay the same.

Anybody have thoughts on this idea?

Hmmm...I love black leather. Should look pretty nice.

yeah i have an idea....let me have the remaining materials so i can go to work on mine. the tan leather i've always liked but the doo doo brown on the dash and doors makes it look 20 years older

my dad and I discussed this, only thing im gonna even bother redying or coloring is the dash and side leather door panels. doing seats will make them look worse he said.

so im gonna be ordering black/red (maybe) or black/black wet okole seat covers front and rear and then black and dark dark grey with the dash and door panels. and seat vinyl parts.

what all are you using? or are you following tv's footsteps like you said

ya know once you go black, you cant go back
looks like that would be a good way to do it.

ive been looking into dying cloth seats a dark color, like black, since i can find used in red or yellow for cheaper than the matching color.
fabric dye

does that leather dye work? really? or does it wear off after you sit in it?

changing colors isnt really recommended, just redying the original color back to its original form. My father has a 52 bentley with a lighter tan leather, he redyes it with leatherique, a very well established ln that type of product.

I plan on getting wet okle seat covers in a black form front and rear, then im going to recolor all of my grey trim to black, and go with limited wood grain trim.

right now im trying to get focused on more worthy mods like getting my rear cargo done, getting it ready for a 200+ mile off paved road trip in utah canyonlands park.
