Justin has since sold the EG

But when i last saw it in-person before he sold it, it was alot more darker then in the photo's

In theory the more Dying you do the darker it will get

THe door trims are a different material from the carpet..

I presume they have a longer drying time?

Post pics please!

so does the carpet fade, like the door trims? im thinking of doing 3coats for a more black look just in case, but i dont want the carpet to fade, even though i will be using floor mats aswell..

its gna fade in time, ie rainy days

i would suggest that you buy a fabric and lay it over your carpet with using some sort of adhesive to stick the items together

i was gna do this instead of buying an EK9 carpet, but i cbf at this stage taking my interior out again

i did that, its not the easiest thing to do lol

did you find the dye left any residue on the carpet, ie, sticky or crusty?
