Ummm....yeah. I agree. Seems like a lot of trouble when you can get a real red carpet that's OEM quality, and usually in the range of about a hundred bucks.

I just used two bottlles of dye and a spray bottle and took my time. I sprayed it down with the dye and them let it dry in to sun they I sprayed it down with water to get the extra dye. Then I used more dye on the spots that were lighter. I don't remember the brand of dye right now but I bought it at Wal mart for about 3.00 a bottle. Its a hole lot cheaper than buying red carpet which runs about $199.00. The camera that I used isn't the greatest and the way the sun hit it, it does look a little orange. I rinsed the extra dye out a couple of times and lit it dry for a day

more than likely I will be getting red carpet but for now this will have to do. If you've seen my other post in the interior forum. You've already seen it with the seats in it nothing has really changed from what I have in that post just a few other parts are painted and the seat covers are still in it because the seats that I want are a little spendy. The next thing that I going to try and do is make a sub box that is similar to the one that you can get on RKsport.com that replaces that rear seat. I want to have it a little different than there's, and that way knowone will have the same thing a I will. But i'll post that when I get started on it. As for more pics that will have to wait.
