I provided the link with all the details your seeking.. just above the pic.

That actually looks pretty good. I want your seats BTW...

I sprayed the headliner (vinyl) in my VW years ago, was white and the rest of the interior was black. The vinyl dye came in a spray can, was about 12 bucks (back in like 1993) and worked like a hot dam. It was not shiny, and looked 100% stock...after a year is looked as good as day 1.

Wish I could remember the brand?

SEM makes some good carpet dyes as does carbrite, automagic, and malco those last three are automotive detailing vendors. SEM is usually sold by autobody supply stores. Hope that helps some

while you spent all that time on the carpet, did you pull it up and take a look under? I would spend time with the paint there first, then worry about the color

Going rubber in mine eventually, after a major floor overhaul.
