    Not really a 3rd gen but..

    Ok Im postin it in here cuz 3rd gens are the ones with leather most of the time so yea thats why...

    Anyway my gf wants to start her car(00 silver accord v6) but hte interior is tan, wood, a lil brown, and of course the tan leather.... now how the hell do you change the color of leather... and please tell me I dont have to reupholster everything....or do you think she should just go to a junkyard and get the dark grey color peices and start from that? I really dont want to dye the stuf fit can be done cuz Im wanting her to dothe work and if the answer is dye it, that means I have to help... (grr) please help me yo!

    there are certain dyes out there made for dye.
    try getting a hold of a dry cleaner or leather cleaner shop.
    my gf works at a dry cleaner's and they can dye leathers from shade to shade (brown to black, tan to brown, etc...)
    but i could see a complication seeing as the leather is firmly attached to your car.

      Dont dye your seats dude, ive seen it done a couple times and at least to me it looks like ****, now i prolly saw just a ****ty job but still, buy some leather take it to a reupholsterer and pay a little money to get it done right. But the bad side of this means youll be without you seat for maybe close to a month.

          The easiest thing to do would probably be just to go to a junkyard and pick up some different leather seats. If not, you could always just upholster everything, I am rather fond of that option.
