What color is the 401A "Linked Graphite" Aluminum Instrument Panel

Picked up my '18 GT few days ago - got the 401A package. Ford website says it includes "Linked Graphite" Aluminum Instrument Panel. My panel is black. Is it supposed to be silver? Can't find any good pics.

Post some good pics of yours

I don't think it should be silver. Nowadays it seems instead of calling it black manufacturers call it graphite.

Does it have the carbon sport package?

Not with showstopper red seats, no

Dash looks silver in the picture?

No carbon sport package. It does look silver in the pic, but that's just the lighting I guess - it's patterned black.

That’s the right dash......

Here's a pic my mom took the day I took delivery of it. I love how they did the interior. To me it looks better than 15-17.

Very helpful pic, Stacie - thank you. That's exactly what mine looks like. And I agree - interior is very well done.

That's the PP dash. If you have 401A and select any package that has its own dash trim, it will override 401A's. (PP and carbon fiber). Same PP one since 2015.

From the dealer pics I've found, the 401A dash looks like a satin gunmetal with a slight cross hatch pattern/texture. Looks a lot cleaner than the bright brushed aluminum trim they've used since the dawn of the S197 days.
