Wholeheartedly agree. Tan should be enjoyed as-is.

Took me about 90 mins. Have to just be patient, have a couple markers, and a rag to wipe any excess that gets on the leather (comes off easy). It works and makes a HUGE difference in helping the interior pop if you go w black interior and want subtle color matching with the exterior color. Everyone who saw the interior raved abt it.
Wow, had no idea! Thank you for sharing! I have seen folks dye their stitching black, but not from light grey to various colors. Def will keep that in mind. I want to do wolf grey with orange seat belt, and paint calipers more of a brighter orange than the burnt orange (do not want ccb's either). My Tennessee Vol fandom is bleeding through!
