heya guys , as car is going to paint shop on the 25th was wondering what the colour was for the SS hatches?
did it have the crome arround the doors and rear windows?
did it have the black at the bottom of the seal panels?
im pretty sure crome arround the tail lights was sunbudgie styles.
did it have the black on the back in between the tail lights?
Thnaks guys

There's a few SS's in Members cars... but do you want your car to look like an SS or an A9X? The paint schemes varied between the two. The SS's from what i've seen have painted bumpers with the rubber strips, the small front spoiler, chrome strips around the windows, black along the sills, no chrome around lights (SL only?) and rear painted black. The A9X's had chrome bumpers with no rubber strips, full bodykit, bonnet/window blackouts, no chrome strips around windows, no black around sills or rear of car, and no chrome around lights again. The A9X's also had the SLR-style mirrors from what i can tell.
Hope this helps mate

Hi Evan, here is another scheme just to confuse you more!!!! LOL
Welby's A9X, (old A9X?) which is just the beez kneez! (hope you dont mind me posting Welby!)
Oh, and just for the record, the black outs in the window area of an SS end
exactly (even though rough as from the factory) in the middle of where the chrome
strip is. So, when looking at the strip along the top of the windows, it is black
inside where the glass area is, and body colour on the other side of the 'line'.
You can just see a bit of body colour under the gutter I guess is what I'm saying!!
Depends on how nit picky you will be Evan.
There is also a black out under the grille area.
If you want any more photoshops of your car, let me know!!! That way you can see it
before paint matey!!

About as close as I can get to the ford colour.
Everything SS, a part from the maxi wheels and flares!!!
(and scoop & aerial)
Not sure if you would continue the lower back on to the flares as well?
Looks nice though!!
Cheers, Leakey
