Black carpet in EK1

[steve88]

hey guys I got an EK1 civic and I wanted to dye or perhaps replace my carpet but with black. do you guys have any experience, i know dying isn't a good idea if you're changing colours but good if you are changing tone. I want mind to go from the current grey to like pitch black.

Alternatively I can buy EK4 carpet (after a search, it's prob too hard to find this shit) or I can coat the current carpet in new carpet and fix it on somehow

any ideas?

Would suggest getting new carpet, remember good old after market will the a little be thicker pile. And when you get it, it may well come with no holes for hand brake and shifter so it’s a good idea to use your old carpet as a template to lie over to make cuts.

New carpet always looks the goods when you have done a good job so take your time and make sure you have a nice shark knife and remember make it a nice tight, snug fit because over time it will start to stretch from just getting in and out.

Good luck if you want more info PM me.

even if u dye it, it'll come off over time and u'll have black dye all over your shoe soles (onto home carpet = no good), etc.
