There are better options if you are on a budget then dying your stockers. If you are wanting to do this because you want to stick with your OEM seats, then consider having them reupholstered instead of dyed.

If you do the work yourself, figure $500-$700 for nice-fitting, nice-quality upholstery. Otherwise prices from shops are going to vary wildly, you'll just have to ask the shops in your area.
