Ok...so I've been working on my two tone project and the last piece done was the carpet. Instead of getting a new one with the same specs as the oem was gonna set me back $200+ shipped (molded carpet with the sound insulation) so I decided to go ahead and give a shot at the Leather Magic Carpet dye kit..the price was 24.99+shipping for a 16oz bottle with the applicator, brush and a pair of gloves. This stuff is amazing!, for this price the product works really good and also it gives the chance to retouch the carpet whenever you want. As far as carpet quality it doesn't compromise the texture of the carpet unlike my test pieces with other product and as far as color it mixes really good. The black honda color gives the same color as charcoal when applied over the tan carpet so keep that in mind if you decide to go with this stuff. Im waiting now to fully dry so I can reassemble my car and get ready for this weekend's canyon meet.

Price: 10
Quality: 10
Application: 8 (you need enough space and time...I did this at my appartment!)
Pros: easy application, no fumes, shipping is fast!
Cons: you need time, space and you might wanna order an extra bottle if you are super anal about the color ( I might get another one just in case)
