The ordering process has yet to complete. The next step after they receive the white KB and MM2 will be that it triggers Apple to then send the Space Gray KB and MM2 to me. This is how the "Service Transaction" works. So stay tuned as I sense all will be well in a weeks time.
Got a tip for us?

I was able to order two sets of all space gray accessories via Chat. Neither rep questioned me and all of my repair confirmations say Space Gray in the description.
The only strange thing is the first rep was able to order all 3 parts in one repair while the second rep said she has to split it up into 3 repairs.

Today my credit card mysteriously got charged at 2AM for ~USD40 from "Apple.com"... I realised that it is the non-return fee for the 'replacement' space grey accessories

The only effort really needed is to read through this thread...
I called up Apple and it took 10 minutes to get a repair-part space grey trackpad. $149.00 + WA state taxes delivered.
I imagine it is quite a bit harder if you do not have an iMac Pro registered to your appleID.

Has anyone been successful at ordering a space gray international keyboard. I am wanting to replace my US one with a traditional Chinese one. I have verified that they sell the iMac Pro in Taiwan with the Taiwan language style keyboard (which is the country of the keyboard I want).
Thanks!
Thanks!
Can you share with me what you had to do to order it? I tried going through AppleCare chat yesterday and they just kicked me out to sales after spending 10 minutes.
I'm really excited about this but really bummed they don't have black lightning cables. I'm using mine to connect to a the iPhone dock but it would be nice to have a few. Not complaining though good job apple getting these out they are great and I'll definitely pick up a mouse for the MBP.
The accessories should come with the black charging cable. They all list a cable as part of the package, expect it will be the proper color.
Oh I see what you mean I was talking more about selling the black lightning cables separately but you are right they would probably include them with the accessories. I was thinking of picking up a mouse for my MBP but I use the trackpad a lot so it isn't a high priority for me. I've been eyeballing it but so far I'm holding off.
I just got my space grey trackpad 2 and it did come with the black USB to Lightning charging cable.
Yes, my Space Grey Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse 2 both came with the black USB-to-Lightning charging cables, and those cables now look so sweet plugged into the black docks I use for my iPhone! I wish Apple would make the black cables available for separate purchase, too -- I would snap up a few more in a heartbeat.
In the meantime, I am loving the beautiful keyboard and mouse, which look really great on my desk and very nicely complement my computer with its black keys and the Space Grey iPads and iPhone which are standing around on the desk as well. I am just thrilled that Apple has finally made them available to all customers now, and especially that the keyboard is the version that includes the numbers pad, which is important to me. I am more than delighted!
Haven't bought the trackpad yet, not sure if I will, as I really didn't use my white Magic Trackpad all that much. I am much more of a mouse user than a trackpad user, but that trackpad does come in handy every now and then..... Probably the Space Grey one will eventually find its way to my household but more than likely not for another month or so, after my bank account has had a chance to recover from this month's recent expenditures!

You can get black lightning cables just about anywhere including amazon brand cables.
I really prefer to use Apple's own cables rather than third-party; I've read about too many failures and problems with other brands.

Looks great, even with the classic silver mac. My keyboard and trackpad should arrive tomorrow, so it looks like they will go with the 2017 iMac.I really prefer to use Apple's own cables rather than third-party; I've read about too many failures and problems with other brands.

I'm still wavering about the trackpad. I have the white one and found that I really don't use it all that much, I tend to use the mouse much more, so I'm thinking that buying a black/space grey trackpad just to match the mouse and the keyboard might be a bit much, but am still thinking about it anyway......
Yes, I think the black keyboard and trackpad will look really nice with the 2017 iMac, too! My MBP is the 2015 15" one, and I am thinking that in another year or so it will be time to replace her.....
