    Looking for a black carpet.... GOT ONE!!! thx

    That's right, just like title says.
    Preferably in Cali so I could arrange a pick up but will consider elsewhere.
    Call/Text (805)570-8177 and drop pics of what you got.
    Thx.

    FOUND ONE, THx guys.

    If you have carpet already, you could try buying a vinyl paint from auto zone and spraying the carpet black. Make sure its clean then spray And after it dries, walk on it a bit to soften it up. Worked great for a buddy who went tan to black. Its like 6 bucks a can and you probably need only 1 or 2 to do it right. Just a suggestion

      Get in touch with Levent at Guten Parts. Sometimes he has some new OEM black carpets in stock, but they are quite rare.

            Black carpet is literally an impossible find. Just dye it.

              I did the same thing it works great. It takes three or four coats. In between coats use a bristle brush on it.

                That's what I am considering. But as fas as color I meant either black or dark grey

                        I dyed my grey carpet black using Dylon powder dye. I think it was this one but I can double check if you want...



                        Mix with boiling water and spray on with a spray bottle. Worked great!
