Might not be black at the moment - mine was grey, and faded and looked horible before I got to it. I say change the colour to suit the car and make it more unique.

Dunno which ones mach bes thought, I found them all to be pretty much similar, supercheap have a dark blue and a light blue which have FORD on the can if thats any help though.

Not exactly T-series style, but I'll be getting the black and sky blue shifter and wheel, and want the rest of the interior to match. I don't want 2 different shades of blue and black in the end.

Anyone? I've tried a few dyes and nothing comes close to fords sky blue, and when I say not close I mean a mile off. I'm coloured blind and can tell its not in the same ball park

The best match to ford black is VHT black satin. I tried gloss black and charcoal first before this colour.
My interior is half done in this colour and it matches the momo wheel pretty well (It looks alot better than the other two). I can supply photo's of the gloss black and the satin black if you want to see what the colour is like.

As for sky blue, it depends what your doing. If it's vinyl your going to colour,then you might have a hard time matching it. But if it's plastic that you want to paint, you should be able to find touch up paint that is a close match.

Hope this helps

Cheers
