Just picked up an FRPP shift knob:

....and realized that it's not black, but "charcoal". I really like it, despite the color and the fact that its base is a bit larger than the stock shift boot. The only options I think I have would be to get a matching charcoal boot from Redline (though now there's a mismatch between the knob/boot and parking brake handle :rollseyes) or I could somehow make the knob black.
Anyone tried dyeing leather, especially a surface that will be handled frequently?
