How to use 'configure' part and face colors?

Hello,
I'm looking to "configure" different parts with colours depending on the "configuration".
I don't see this as a build in option.
I tried looking at existing featurescript, but it seems there are limitations* .
* Limitations - The part or surface can not have been prior assigned an appearance or it over-rides the feature script values.
Testing (parts 1 and 2 and face 3 have been manually set and now the scripts can not affect the colours. You can also see part 3 and 4 where no manual colour has been set the featurescript work as expected.:

What can be done to have have one part with selectable colours?
Thank you in advance.

Ok, I'm thinking found a poor work arround ...
Click on the part ... go to "properties"
Click on "Reset All" properties.
Is there a way to only remove the "Colour" properties without resetting all of the part configuration?

You can configure colours through the UI
