VHT carpet/interior dye has worked wonders for me. I painted a seat and door panels in one of my fourth gens. with it and it's held up great.

I used the paint and it looked good but if anything hits it it will kinda scrape off and look grey so i took my headliner out and took the tan fabric off and glued some black vynal "not sure how to spell it" up and was way happier with it

The VHT dye actually dyes the carpet...it's not a paint. Here's what it looks like:  I found it at my local Schucks. PartsAmerica.com may have it online to order. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
