I would struggle with calling it a grey but my colour perception with really light tones is not the best.

As for changing the colour I would probably take it out and use multiple weak coats of a diluted fabric dye over a week or so. That's without knowing of a proprietary method which there probably is.

Just to be clear I meant to say mine is grey, yours could be biege but that would indicate a change sometime after 2012 ish.

(and my share perception is poor as well)

Easy enough to change fabric colour, but I would spray it if possible to get a more even coverage. Spraying avoids the tie dye pattern effect, unless that's what you want.
I changed a blue leather steering wheel to black using shoe dye, worked perfectly and I sold the car with it still on.
One such fabric dye amzn.eu/d/5o3Sato

Now I've said it I sort of like the idea of a tie dyed spiral effect headlining, go for it, possibly on a spare headliner
