Oh, also FINALLY got around to dying the carpet. It came out amazing and I highly recommend Detail King carpet dye. I also highly recommend for everyone with the grey carpet to go with the light grey if you are wanting to match the color. I ordered BOTH the light grey and the medium abs started with the light. It’s actually a tad bit darker than the oem but in the car you can’t tell at all. It looks amazing. I am super happy with how it came out. I dyed it according to their directions on the site and not putting it in a container and letting it soak. I wanted the oem carpet padding to still be on the carpet and not dyed grey. So moisten the carpet first, then spray the dye and use a brush to rub it in then let it sit overnight. First pic is before, second pic is left half after/right half before and last pic if after but not fully dry yet.
I also wanted the rear hatch cover to match too and it was faded so dyed it too. Be careful when using the brush though and don’t put too much pressure on it! Mine was sun baked and too much pressure was taking off fiber. So be gentle and I removed the rubber things on it to make it dye uniform. Turned out amazing too. The color it is, is how the carpet turned out when fully dry. It’s so close to the oem color.
