Fabric dye came the other day, just had a quick mess with it and think I nailed the dilution ratio for a black interior. The stuffs as black as tar so I maybe diluted it 10/1 with warm water and sprayed it on with a spray bottle. Says to dry it out with a hairdryer after but it can just sit in the garage overnight. I’ll dry the carpets and headliner though, don’t want the car getting musty, the stuff f**king stinks too so don’t really want the car smelling of it forever!

Looks a little patchy on the photos but it’s taken quite well, can always do another coat after if I need to, darker too if need be

It’s a bit blurry but they’re the same, just without all the extra wiring. Someone actually paid $225 for them too haha! Madness! I paid £15 for mine, do need a good refurb but I enjoy doing that sort of thing, and getting a bargain too aha

Nice! That's the larger fogs, quite rare and really popular. You got a bargain! Think they are made from different materials compared to the standard civic mb fogs which are small projectors.

The insides are shot completely, but I just want to black them out and have bright bulbs in there so it never bothered me. 
Yeah they’ve got rubber surrounds but the casing is plastic, feels a bit brittle but they’ll split one way or another. I read that the twist off so needs a little persuasion if anything

That looks decent with the dye


Ended up re doing it using the dye neat and from a pressure spray bottle, got the carpets and headlining done too, massive pain but looks way better. Just the cream/beige interior plastics to sort now
