    I have suede inserts in my 2003 Cobra..wondering if there is a dye out there I can use to dye it a different color. The original color is a light grey, and I am wanting to dye it a darker charcoal/black color. Has anyone had an experience with dying suede? any info would be appreciated.:xyxthumbs



    Want to go from this







    to this

    From the pictures this looks like alcantara (fabric) rather than suede. If it is genuine suede then it is very tricky to redye although there are products available for this.



    If you wanted to change the colour as per the pictures you would need to have the fabric areas dyed and the leather areas repigmented. This is certainly possible but would need a specialist leather technician to do it.
