aaaaaarrrrrggggghhhhhh
taken delivery of loads green casing screws for my next 2 bikes all various sizes from 25mm to 50mm and peed off as they all are different shades!!!! some even look pea green!!!! some black green and some in between!!!!
my annoyanance isnt just one size the same colour but different colours within same size range..
anyone else with similar problem???
and i know some of you also like to see the green screws to make ya lc's looks original even if you dont want to admit it... 
anyone got some swaps for diff shades etc

All perfectly normal, its plating after all and no two batches will be the same - even off the same vendor. Just take all of them into a grab back and fit them at random like floor tile.

They're in Portsmouth, so it might be too far for you. I've had several pieces done by them and I was very please with the results. As I am a fussy f*** that must say something.
Cheers
