I have a set of 94 civic si front seats, as well as a set of 88 teg back seats that i am looking to put into my ef hatch. Problem is, they dont match, either in color, and the pattern on the insert fabric is slightly off.

Is there any way i could maybe, paint the seats to match? Like, black on the outside, then something else (like a dark blue) on the inserts? I have been told taht a few coats of normal spray paint will soak in and work just fine, but i wanted to make sure first

slap who ever told you that.

they sell a half decent fabric color by SEM, about 10 buck per can

 

know of any places that sell this SEM?

Crappy tire, walmart, etc

 

I tried using some fabric dye from auto on my old cars rear seats... not to pretty. The seats came out stiffer than a board and it took alot to get it looking right. I would honestly rather take the seat apart and get the hog rings off and make my own using the existing pattern.

 

my friend painted his leathers seats with that sem paint flat balck and they look perfect just like oem
...not so sure about on cloth tho i would imagine that they come out stiff

 

ask who ever told you that you can spray paint your cloth seats if they have done that to their seats..and if they say no its for a reason
