I don't believe you can dye these  :(.


Better to crash and burn than fade away

You can dye Dominator seats, same as all other bmx seats....

I dyed this dominator last week as a "test" of sorts. I have an NOS Skyway labeled dominator thats a bit yellowed. I wanted it to be red so I did a test on another dominator seat to see how it would turn out.

The seat on the right used to be white....after a dip in some Rit Dye it ended up red. And no damage to the side logo either!

2 containers of liquid Rit Dye, 2 cups of salt, and let it simmer on the stove overnight...
