    I am considering doing the same to my carpet. I'd like to know how it holds up and if it rubs off at all.

        it shouldn't rub off your changing the color the the fabric with the dye but put floor mats where feet would be just in case. as of right now it still looks the same as when we did it just took for ever couldnt find a bin to soak it in so we did it with brushes and spray bottles in the driveway.

                        Absolutely everything is yellow. Are your wheels yellow too now? You're going to need a lot of paint stripper.

                            Hey, what kind of turbo set up do you have? I'm interested in T/C or S/C mine when I'm done with my suspension.
