Given I'm on my third chassis, one lost to a fire, second to a idiot side swiping me in a parking lot, deer hit on highway and blown trans, so the third I was unable to keep the same interior color as I would've liked.

Currently its a light gray and would like to get it to match the (unfortunately) burgundy interior color or just black. What could I use to do this? I've never ever attempted something like this so don't know where to start.

Thanks ahead of time.

I seen on another forum that someone dyed all the interior plastic and seat belts too. they boiled it with a mix of water and RIT dye. The color was black.

Interesting, I would be afraid of the plastic melting/disfiguring as the pillar pod is rather thin in nature. Thanks for the tip though ill look into it.

Just spray paint it.

^Could but not gonna have my car look like ****/ghetto. Spray paint will peel and crack in no time with the heat of the summer sun. Dye is much more permanent and looks professional.
