most people are either have to much money or just dont like anything that isnt like every other car on here haha. ive never done the seats i did try some fabric spray paint on the carpets it wasnt to bad after a few thin coats but lets it feeling really stiff. ive heard of people having alot of success with different dyes. you would most likely be better off just searching for it on youtube or something

My dad dyed his seats in his old '77 Blazer. He dyed them black. I mean, it worked, but black would also be flaking off on your clothes and it changed the texture of the seat to be a bit more rough. That's just my personal experience.

I have used a fabric spray/dye in the past, but it is simply a coating. In time and use it will wear off. I have also used restoration correct dye's and paints, but only on door and side panels. The spray will wear off and sooner rather then later. You are better off just searching on craigslist for the needed item if its a high wear piece or item.
