Nice! Any thoughts on the stability of the dye? Will it fade with shampooing etc?


How does it match your leather. I have the lighter red leather which I thought was Boxster red. Where are the codes for interior colour on the car?

jaykay, I think we have the same Boxster Red interior, which is a lighter red in comparison to the later 987 models with a much deeper red.

I'm not to sure about how stable the dye is - it certainly is dry to the touch and a towel with water. We'll have to see about shampoo.

Also, I did my door panels tonight. There's leather in these pictures, so you can gauge the match for yourself. The dye is spot-on Boxster Red leather - I accidentally got some on the leather door panel and couldn't even see it.

Outside today - engine cover done, door panels not done
