This is what I started with:



And here's a sneak preview. What do you all think?







I will do a couple more passes with the dye in the morning, but I just wanted to give it a look tonight... The flash picks up some of the maroon, but to actually look at it, it's black as night.

 

Looks good. You can leave it in your living room, sit on the floor, make brap brap...noises and pretend you're driving

 

Nice. Looks good, cant wait to see the final thing.

 

That's true dedication to a color change.

 

I took my son out to the car earlier, and he stood up, grabbed on the wheel and started going "pbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb". If I leave the dash there in the morning, he would be all over it.

 

how did you dye the dash? use a cloth or sponge?

 

Fiebing's leather dye and some soft, clean cloths.

Wow looks good...do you have any color matching problems though since one is dipped and one is applied?

 

Nice

 

looks great. i gotta refresh my interior soon. I'm probably just going to get a dash cap or new dash because there's quite a few cracks in it.

 

Damn you, you make me want to do that to my brown interior now

 

I actually like the red glow in the black. It reminds me of the old black cherry paint, and I am old enough to remember when it was popular.
