Fb Brown carpet dye?

Hey everyone! I have a spot behind the seat of my SE that is discolored from spillage, not sure what the previous owner spilled but it left a mark. I am wondering if anyone has found a dye or fabric spray paint that matches the s3 fb carpet. I don’t want to get new carpet because the rest of the carpet is near perfect. Any suggestions? Me and Kiki say thanks!

I have used the dark brown dye from Detail Kings and it worked very well. Yours may take a couple of applications to get it to the right shade. You may also want to consider cutting it a little less than I did. One of my Corvette's has a brown interior and it's about the same shade as the brown in my GSL-SE interior. My carpet had faded to almost a white and I used the Detail Kings dye and I think it turned out pretty good. Here are a couple of pictures that I took after I dyed it and it was dry:
