What is the generally accepted finish for the displacer units. I have painted the sub frames and arms etc in 2K satin black, and wondered if the units were the same?
Many thanks
James

Re: Displacer finish
I have some NOS displacers and I'm pretty sure they are a Matt black finish with the stripe sprayed on.
Will try and get some pics tomorrow .

Re: Displacer finish
My NOS ones are what I'd call satin, I think the paint quality makes 'em look more matt!
