Default Someone help me out please

I just got some grey integra headrests. The only problem is, they are darker then my civic seats. How do I go about fading these seats out to match my civic seats?

have you considered color bleach? or maybe a mixture of both whitening and color! Check the tone of the seats when wet, and soak until it matches..just a thought.

How will I make them fit? They already fit with no problem. It just kinda looks funny with the light grey seat and dark grey headrest. I dont really want to bleach it because I'm afraid it will get too bright or I might fuc* it up. How much do you think it should cost getting it re stitched?
