Fabric work? Need carpets bleached/dyed...

Anyone know any top notch fabric specialists who could bleach and dye my carpets/door panels/rear seats(blue section) to match a red I have? Let me know...

dude I didn't know you could change the carpet and cloth from blue to red without some kind of paint.

have you looked into getting it re-upholstered? either way you're going to have to tear your car apart...

You will be able to dye the carpets, but for the door panels and rear seats you'll have to get em re-upholstered since they are suede.

Talk to Coach about that, they might be able to come up with something.

Here is some contact info that I got from another thread.

Carpets can be dyed, but it never looks good. Going from blue to red, you'r going to get a purple carpet even if bleached.

As for rear seats/doors, stop by the shop and we can match up a sample to your front seats and give u an estimate.
