Color changing interior. Dying black vs. buying new.

Has anyone taken a mint interior that was a color they didn't care for and dyed it another color with success? If it's possible, is it worth it because you retain original pieces. Is it better or more affordable to buy all new and do it that way? Not looking for opinions, but advice from members that have actually done something like this. The reason I ask is I'm considering buying a car, but the interior color I'm not sure I like. I'm talking, dash pad, door panels, seats with cloth inserts, etc..
