I did paint my vinyl pieces with the leather dye. I bought a soft hair brush from the company as well, for minor touch ups...but winded up using the brush for the entire project. I had a lot of raised eyebrows around my garage at first. People thought I was mad applying on the paint with a brush. But the finish product, I myself was pretty surprised how well it turned out.

I took it to Porsche in the Parks, a Suncoast Porsche event in Sarasota, and got a lot of nice compliments for those who got a chance to take a closer look...I even made a grand entry when I pulled in and my car dumped a good gallon of coolant all over the sidewalk.

The great thing was I learned some very useful information from the coolant dumping saga. I got great help from a Suncoast technician who took care of replacing the fluids for my car so I could make it home. He also gave some very practical recommendations as to replacing the reservoirs and flushing the coolants using their vacuuming system. I also met the very nice and knowledgeable Pedro there who taught me a couple tricks on how to air out the coolant system. Thanks to them, I was able to drive my car home without any issues.
