Stitch dye? Anyone brave enough to try?

I was browsing the Camaro5 forum and stumbled into a thread discussing dye for the various stitchings in the car. They were talking about using an acrylic at first but it they started using a fabric dye pen. It seems to work pretty well and no one has mentioned any fading. (Camaro5 links at bottom of post)

Obviously you don't want to use this on fabric seats but it could definitely be used on the seats of the touring model and the console/shifter/cubby hole of all models.
