I made this mod for myself, but maybe some people can find it useful too.
Playing on TV I had a hard time telling what colors were in those skinny dye bottles.
Mod is a simple icon replacer.

Some original icons are straight up copy-pasted even though the final color is different (see pictures).
Dye names can also be misleading, such as the 'Yellow dye' that unexpectedly adds a green to your equip.
In the end, that's what motivated me to rework dye bottle icons from scratch to be more representative.
