I think I am going to dye the backs of the seats, they are made out of the same material as the dash - see how it looks. No one will ever see it, but me, lol, so if it's ugly and I don't like it that dark then I won't do the dash.

Besides, that's the great thing about dye and paint and stuff like that - if you don't like it, just pick a different color and re-do it!

Hmmmmm, hot pink is coming to mind, lol, OMG Kidding, just kidding!

Well I'd say it looks like you have no problem jumping on top of things and putting in the extra work to get there!

Well if you want something done right....

Besides, the hard work is the best part - if you don't put in the extra effort then the finish is just kinda...blah.

You mean over the center of the steering wheel? I left it vanilla on purpose. Grrrr.

It's different, in a good way, like me!

Well you were talking about the dash which then made me look at the center console which is currently silver and then I just kind of forgot you were talking about the dash...

Either way, thanks for the assist Mrmiata
