OSX Mountain Lion -- Any ideas how to set the tabbar colors for files opened from Finder.app

[lawlist]

The hard-coded solution (referred to in my previous issue) works for opening files from within Aquamacs, but not for files opened from Finder.app (with Aquamacs being opened in conjunction therewith). The tabs are mostly grey, except for a few after they have been modified. I've tried to also set the custom variables inside the init.el, but that doesn't seem to work either. I checked the tabbar.el just in case that was causing it, and I only found a few colors there, and changing them didn't affect anything. These are the variables in the init, which mirrors the hard-coded portion of aquamacs-tabbar.el (referred to in the previous issue):
