Howdy folks!

If I ever get ye olde P38 running reliably I was hoping to invest some time into sprucing up the interior.
I currently have a dull-ish grey interior and I quite like the black on black that can be found on the HSE specs.

The plastic parts are easy enough, I'm fairly handy with a spray gun. But I'm not sure about the vinyl/leather bits on the dash and door cards etc. Has anyone tried dying it or using some sort of something?

Any ideas welcome

I dont have any experience with changing the colour of leather, but I recently got a touch up kit from Scratch doctor for the Lightstone beige leather. The kit I got, you just use a sponge and evenly apply the leather dye to re-colour the worn areas. I imagine your spray gun skills could be put to use here, find any good branded leather dye (preferably one that is designed to be applied to already coloured leather) - scuff up the surfaces with some high grit sand paper (gently), clean super well and spray away! Using some kind of dye compatible spray nozzle of course

Note, make sure you get a leather sealer to put over your newly dyed pieces! I foolishly believed the "all in one" dye I got at first, within a week all my freshly dyed parts had started to wear and discolour...

+1 on that or furniture clinic do a complete kit with spray gun
