Hmm... Now they just look like some greasemonkey mechanic has been sitting in there in dirty overalls for 10k miles...

Will be interesting to see how the second attempt turns out

Just get them re-trimmed IMO

Why have you dyed them? You not like the pattern?

I hate the pattern!!! A full re-trim would be too much of a mission, I might get big charlie (my dad) to sew a center peice in the seats.

i hate the seat pattern aswel, looks gash. why didnt they just make it plain black in the first place? i think dying seats is a cost effective alternative to a retrim. mastahP if your seats end up looking good when your done i think il have to do the same to mine.

Are you sure it's permanent? Can imagine you driving up the motorway, getting out and being part black yo.

i think think turning black when getting out of your car when you're driving up the motorway is the least of your worries
