I know a guy who did this and it worked great. Just bought the dye at an auto paint shop. Another thing you may like: He also bought some of the UV clear dye and painted flames on his headliner. At night you flip on the black lights and the flames show up. Looked wicked...

SEM also makes dye. only available at auto body supply stores and will probably cost more then the Duplicolor, but it is another option.
