Re: Carpet Dye Vs. Buying Black carpet
i dyed my grey carpet black using rit dye and a big plastic tub for my EG
the carpe came out pretty good, i used 2 bottles of rit, bought some cleaner and such to clean it before hand the only bad part about the carpet is the plastic trim at the bottom of the door jamb is like held in by clips you will most likely break off, if those arent fixed your carpet will pull back around the door jamb |
Re: Carpet Dye Vs. Buying Black carpet
I tried ritz about 7 bottles in a big trash can... did not work for me.. still was grey after a day sitting in the tub..

Checker Auto sells a carpet paint. I used it years ago on an older Hyundai (getting ready to sell), and it came out pretty damn nice!!!

Re: Carpet Dye Vs. Buying Black carpet
it all depends if money is no object to you, if it is like me take the carpet to the car wash spray it go to autozone and get the carpet spray i think duplicolor makes it and spray it last a long time just makes the carpet a little crunch but u wont see it

Re: Carpet Dye Vs. Buying Black carpet
I'd rather rock no carpet, OEM or nothing! No, please do. I was being serious, actually, as I've been looking into it. Issues with fit, quality...? 2. Aftermarket doesn't fit right. They're only "generally" molded. Not Exact. 3. Aftermarket carpet doesn't have holes cut out already. So if you don't already have some of the OEM carpet laying around to use as a template. your screwed. 4. OEM is Best. and JDM is even better, because Japan kept almost all the cool high end goodies for themselves. That's a huge reason ppl go after and spend $$$ on jdm parts. There's no better quality. 5. you can find a good used carpet. it's possible. 6. I just Pm'd you to help you out. |
