    I just got my seats and door panels back from being redyed. I can't believe how they look and feel. I'll get some pictures this week but they look brand new. SUPER job by the shop in Danbury Ct. and the workmanship was great. They did some slight repair that you can't even see. Door panel match to a tee in fact they used them (under the pocket ) to match the color. They mix their own dye and use water base and spray (airbrush) on . You cannot tell from new. $600 for the works. Great little shop who does custom interiors for rods and trak stuff as well as bikes. If anyone wants the name and address I'll let you have it. Enjoy the ride.

    I don't understand why stuff like this is PMd. This is a forum for crying out loud! Why not share it with everyone? What's this, "PM me the name" business I see in every other thread??

    Do you know who's dye they use? Whose product line?

    It looks fantastic! Another reason why I don't endorse recovering.

    Any before photos? I notice a few places where mine won't come clean and have always wondered how long it would last. My BMW could use the treatment as well and that's my question, how long can you expect dye to last with everyday driving? Yours do look fantastic!

    Has anyone tried dying the carpets? Mine have a bit of sun fade and are tan.

    I used Leatherique on my seats. They turned out pretty well for the dollars invested. Marked improvement over where they were, but the dye has started to crack a few weeks later.

    Congrats, yours look great.

    I wonder if you did it wrong. I did Leatherique and it's still great after two seasons.

    Regarding CARPETS: Check with Leatherique. I believe they actually have dye for carpets too.:)

    I don't know how they will wear but this place has done other Fcar interiors and other exotic's so I'll need to see what the long term quality is. I have a before pic and will post it below but it was not to good of a pic.

    If your interior is black or white try the Leather Black or Leather White dye products from www.docbailey.com .If it works onleather motocycle seats, it'll work on leather car seats...
