    Color of Mach v extreme wing

    can anyone who owns one please tell me the color of the above wing, all the photos I find are unclear, I realize it's kind of black, but looks to be grey black as opposed to straight black as in the standard mach vs. TIA.

    Every one I've seen is black.

    "They called themselves Guerrilla Divers.
    Composed of elite divers with Macho mentalities, back when men were men, and FEAR was a lispy companion of the common Man. It was a time before insurance liabilities, lawsuits or beauracratic regulation of the "sport". Guerrilla divers didn't need "Buoyancy Compensator Vests". In fact, "Anyone who needs a BC deserves to drown" was a popular adage. Exploration and the Hunt came first, excitement and fun followed. Safety was the stepchild of fitness, good reflexes and a cool head.
    This was a time of great Adventure."

    The reason why the extreme looks grey in photo is because those tiny black guard plates that cover all over the shell of the BC are shinny and reflect light. This makes the BC look a bit greyish in photo.
