All, I have a Lightning Blue GT350 arriving in the next several days. Was already ordered before I bought it, but with the white stripes and no black roof. I'm planning on removing stripes and having the roof painted and was wondering if you could look at your manufacturing data sticker (driver's door jamb) and give me the paint code for the black roof? Both paint codes <should> be there and although I'm pretty sure its Shadow Black, I can't find reference to it anywhere.

thanks!!

PS just noticed misspelled thread title, can't figure out how to edit...

PSS Or it could be "Absolute Black"??

Anyone...?

Gents...please

I've got the stripes, otherwise I'd be happy to help!

out of town, when I get back next week , i'll let you know if no one else responds.

Thanks gentlemen, much appreciated. My local dealers don't have a black roof just a couple with stripes.

Hmm did you guys ever figure out what the paint code for the black roof is?

Here's my door sticker, but I can't tell which one is the roof paint code XD I only see my exterior paint code.

why would it matter if the car has stripes or not, the paint code of the black should be the same shouldn't it?

Could be correct but you never know. Ford uses different black and not sure they which they are using for the roof...moot now as I had it wrapped, thx.

PS Was it this past weekend you participated in a track/race event? How'd it go?

yeah I did the Mojave Magnum land speed run on the Mojave airport runway. I was a rookie so I had to spend all day building my way up through the speed classes without breaking out of my speed limit. By the time I graduated to the A class and could go wide open the cross wind was so horrific that I couldn't get above 214, this is video from my last run, stone cold tires, no burnouts allowed, you can see/hear my tire slipping a lot, and the cross wind nearly threw me off the bike at 214mph, have a look:

Nice, thanks for the link! Brings back my sport bike days for sure! 105mph 1/4? and 214.1 top speed? Curious, while 214 is super faaaaaast, are you thinking w/o cross wind you would have been faster?
