What is the AMB camp doing with no white AND now no mod top at all?

Let me first say, that IMO, AMB may be the worst color paired with a MIC top. Many guys wanted white mod tops. Then found out they couldnt get it, and settled on a black mod top (to either keep, or paint white). But now that's not an option either.

So for the early reservation holders looking at AMB, will you delay your car to take delivery with a mod top? Or take delivery with a MIC and wait for the mod top? Or potentially change color entirely?

I really dislike the idea of a MIC top with AMB, and im totally deflated. I even posted earlier today that my biggest concern was that we would find out during B&P that we couldnt get a mod top, since even with a black one, you could at least paint it white. Some guys were going to pay $1k to paint the $2k black top white. Now not even money can fix our current problem, only time. Incredibly frustrating.

You AMB guys are brave.. that color is so hard to figure out... it scares the hell out of me ...

How? The MIC top painted white will look terrible. Are you going to bribe webasto to get a mod top?

It's not "not available" it's just late availibilty. Heck, for all we know a white mod top might be a late availibilty option too.

I think any dark color with the MIC is going to look bad. It either needs to be color matched to the body or black.

No matter what color I pick (A51) I will still want a black top. I have an auto body guy, I'll get his expert opinion. I will do what I can to paint, wrap, whatever to make it black. If nothing works then I'll live with the mic gray. Not the end of the world for me.

Any auto body shop can fix these tops to any color you want at a minimal expense.

I think I've posted the Rustoleum pic in every thread bitching about the MIC tops. My top will be the color I want it to be. Yours can be too.

Getting Rapid Red or Velocity Blue (VB may be late delivery so that might be out too) or maybe A51

So how do we get a black mod top? Can i chose it as a secondary top when i order my OBX, to not hold up the delivery, cars delivered on time with a MIC, then ford is obligated to send the second top when it's ready? OR, must i chose a MIC, take delivery. Sale is final. Then I go from an early reservation guy to a random guy, and need to call Ford for 12 months until they are willing to sell me a top?

AMB will look fantastic on my Badlands with MIC Gray top, grill and optional wheels (Carbonized Gray with Gloss Black). Down the road, maybe I'll go white on these components. For now I'm ecstatic. And my simple configuration will hopefully fly through production. IMHO, the lighter the MIC top ends up being, the happier I am as this just creates more contrast with AMB.

[EDIT] FWIW, my wife makes bank putting colors together for her clients and she loves this combination. I’ve tried to move her in other directions and I get the pouty face. She always pushes me back to AMB w/ Carbonized Gray.

Oh thank god. Lightning blue looks like it may be offered on OBX. If thats the case ill probably switch over to lighten up the color to take on a MIC top.
