Is that the way the hatches came originally red? I'm just curious, cause our four door ones live up on that big hole to the right and are out of sight. Just in case anybody ever asks me to fit a hatch one.

I have NFI what colour hatches are or should be painted on the inside. Four doors the boot underside is the same as the outside of the car.

The pics supplied there are of a factory unmolested A9X hatch. Yes it's correct. the inside colour matches the trim colour. I'll see if I can get better pics of it though as to where the colours start and finish

Nope, thats not correct as far as original goes. the black doesn't extend far enough up. Actually the black around the windows isn't the same as factory either but the car is fairly modified

thanks REDA9X for all your help.one last question,do you know what colour the black is. the rest of the interior is not what i would call a gloss black,but the matt black i tried just dont look right, it is way to dull. is it supposed to be a gloss, an my interior has lost its shine over time, maybe i just need to give the pillars a quick cut an polish thanks

hi just wondering is this the same colour that the a9x bonnets are painted. looks the same in the photos,it must be hard to keep clean on the bonnet?
