you could always dye or paint interior that would give you a nice little project to do.

shaved. i love my carpets shaved! oh, you mean the car carpet.....

do it man, i dyed my carpet black, wwwaaaayyyyy better. especially cause it was stained from before. i hate light color interiors! its kind of a pain though. you have to remove rear seat, rear panels, front seats, center and shifter console, front side panels. i literally had my whole car gutted for a weekend to dye me carpet. kinda weird when i had to drive around but worth it in the end.

What did you use to dye your carpet and how did you do it? Sounds like some trouble but i'm willing to go through.

i used this thing called dye rit. they sell it at like hobby stores/wal-mart/target. its comes in a small box in different colors. i did my carpet and my rugs. took a whole weekend in my dorm room. i suggest you have a lot of space and lots of time. especially if you want good dark and deep black, put many thick layers and let it dry completely. i put one good layer and after it dryed up, it came out a dark dark grey rather then a black. it just looked darker cause it was wet. Expect to have your carpet out for a good week. its kinda cool tho. your car is almost fully gutted, if you have an exhaust, the cabin is really loud. .
