Take the covers off the seats and wash them. Then pretreat them. then dye. Reinstall. May need an upholstery shops help.

Sorry to bring back a 2 month old thread.

I dont think dying it would weaken the fabric, what kind of dye did you use?

I've been looking into the same thing and i found this Link (http://www.sunshinejoy.com/Simply_Spray_Fabric_Paint.asp?Category=16&Name=Fabric_Spray_Paint)

And heres a video of it being used (http://www.simplyspray.com/car%20painting.asf)
