uhh, unless you have white carpet, you're not going to be able to "dye" it. but if you mean painting the carpet, i bet it'd look like ****. just go get new carpet, it's only like 100-150

i painted the carpet in my 94 teg. i put in gsr seat (black) but the carpet what grey. i went to pep-boyz and got some uphostry (spell??) paint. They come in a spray can and is easy to apply. I have it since july and no signs of fading. make sure you put several coats on it.

it cost about $5 a can. I used about 2 1/2 can but i also painted my floor mats. Make sure you clean the carpet real good before doing it.
