G'day,
Anyone had success in dying beige carpet to black? If so, what product works? I have a full black interior sans carpet and my existing beige carpet is in really good condition. It seems a shame (and a waste of money) to ditch the old carpet. Thanks

Thanks DaveD, just have to find a similar product in Australia!! It certainly comes up nicely though. Does the same dye work on the plastic heel pad on the drivers side?
