Color-matched the stitching on my steering wheel...
I installed a Personal steering wheel in my car last month. It's black suede with blue stitching. It looks great, but there was one small problem - the blue stitching didn't match the other blue trim inside my car. It was just a little too light.
I went to an arts and crafts store and picked up a fabric dye pen, and started coloring the stitching.
Here's what it looked like before:
And here's what it looks like now:
The difference between the two colors:
The finished product:
Before and after, with the wheel installed:

I wonder if you could completely change the color because I want to get the same wheel but they only do blue, yellow and I think red stitching which doesnt match anything for me. I would prefer a dark gray stitch or just black.
Do you think I could do that with they dye or would the color be weird?
