Dyed a roller blind shelf black for my own car and it still looks ok after a few years still.

I tried dying mine with Autoglym black dye. It didn't work, I think its because of the material the shelf is made from as it didn't absorb the dye. You could try a different product, but my advice would be to buy a new piece of cloth and glue it over your parcel shelf.
