To be clear, you can pick any color listed for each piece? So, titanium grey top with ink black bottom is possible?
Or are you limited to the colors shown for each piece top/bottom/plate?

Weight will be in the same color as top case, stripes will be in the same color as top case.

Shouldn't the stripes be the same colour as the bottom case, if not they won't be visible against the top case if they're the same colour?

You'd be able to choose any color from the ten options for either top, bottom cases and plate. So in theory the total number of combination would be 10 top x 10 bot x 10 plate x2 logo x 2 stripes=4000

...Logo will be made in stainless steel or brass at your choice with no extra cost. [...]Weight will be in the same color as top case, stripes will be in the same color as bottom case.

So does this mean the logo and the weight will have probably different colours? From how I am understanding, the logo is not going to be coloured, and so will (probably) have the colour of the stainless steel and brass respectively, but say you chose Ink Black for top colour your weight (aluminum or brass) will be Ink Black as well?

Just wanted to be clear of the choices.

Also very looking forward to this GB to reopen again!

Only the logo is available in stainless steel. Weight and stripes are in aluminum by default and can be upgraded to brass.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but they won't be coloring the brass.
I think if you pick Black Ink for top and don't upgrade the weight to brass, it will be black ink colored aluminum.

So the selections would look like:
Logo = Stainless Steel or Brass
Weight = Aluminum to match Top Case or Brass
Stripe = Aluminum to match Bottom Case or Brass

What Arallu said sounds right to me, but zzyjayfree can you confirm this will be the case?
