27034, Floor Carpet Posted by jkoston, Jul-19-02 07:23 PM
How hard is it to replace the floor carpet? I have a whole (wtf i must be tired i meant hole) wearing by the left foot. I haven't really looked at it but it is it something that can be done easily?
And how about dying the seats black?
Thanks

I've thought about using RIT dye to dye the carpet and seats. I don't know how well the seat fabric or carpet will absorbe the color. Or worse yet will they bleed once you've dyed them.
I think some of the guys have used some sort of spray paint.

it's really easy to replace you just have to pull the seats out and pull off some of the molding.... you can get a colored molded rug from www.accmats.com they also have reg colors......... oh yeah i forgot to mention they are under 200 bucks i think like 170.00 best price you'll find for a good rug

do not dye the carpet. my friend did to his civic, i got in it after some rain, our shoes were a little wet, it came right off onto our shoes. which sucked because my shoes were fairly new.
i tried the fabric spray paint but that didn't work well, it just flaked right off. then i figured i'd try regular spray paint from wally world and it worked just fine, i've had to retouch it 2 times in the last year where there is high traffic.
try it you woln't be dissapointed.
