I can’t figure out why they aren’t set on what options go with what trims. Strange to me that things have changed from the initial launch for optionsif ford plays bait & switch, they'll lose me.

There's a reason their stock is $5 and their bonds are rated 'junk'Such a Ford move.
Purple?what color does grey become when it fades???
I love me some aerosoace 303...use it on my jeep soft top and all my plastic door panels in the jeep and truck. Even use it on my jeep’s rollbar padding.I'm not an expert here as I only detailed and restored cars for a decade, and that devolved into boutique detailing for select clients long ago (customers are the worst!)
But your problem is that you're using a garbage product and wondering why it doesn't work. At least you didn't say "Back to black", which is possibly the only shi%%&^# product you could possibly be using to restore or protect black plastics.
If you want to actually re-finish black plastics, may I suggest Solution Finish. This stuff actually penetrates the plastic and will restore it's color. I've even used this without any surface prep work on a neighbor's stupid JEEP with fender plastics that had turned to a white powder appearance. Penetrated perfectly on the first pass and they still look good 5 years later.
Solution Finish: Black plastic and vinyl restorer
Treated/untreated
Before/after
I have been quite upset about the only hard top on the 2-doors being grey. So if I have to get stuck with that then i'll be trying the new Solution Finish for grey plastics.

Also, using a UV protectant such as 303 aerospace protectant will go a long way in preventing the fading from starting.
FYI: The small, $15 bottle of Solution Finish Black should be enough to do about 20 Jeeps, restoring every single piece of faded black plastic and fender on every single one of them. That stuff just keeps spreading like a champ!

I've only thought of the colors that the base can get (since I'm getting a base trim 2 door), I've thought in the way of what would play ball with the MIC top, and what would dominate it.Has anyone gauged what colors will
Work best with the (uugh) grey HT?
I liked the cactus grey and carbonized grey, seems to blend in better..
Thoughts?
I wonder what would happen if you used the black solution on Grey ??Just ordered the solution finish. thanks the the reco, Rick
Probably make it black? Which I'm good with. I'm using mine for the plastic on my 2014 WK2. Started fading around 2018.I wonder what would happen if you used the black solution on Grey ??
If so that’s an even easier solution than rhino lining it Matte black. DIY, cheap and won’t take more than an afternoonProbably make it black? Which I'm good with. I'm using mine for the plastic on my 2014 WK2. Started fading around 2018.

Edit: @BroncoGuy would this work on the type of material used for the MIC top? Could it theoretically make a grey top appear black?
agreed, that looks like straight baby diaper trash.Goodness that looks awful - what a way to ruin that amazing orange
