Yeah I know someone that had stock bullets your color and ordered black bullets... they look exactly the same except 18" instead of the stock 17". If that helps.

Wait, black bullitts? Do you mean anthracite? I'm sure black ones wouldn't look exactly like mine.

no there not the same... stock bullitts have charcoal bits in them and anthracrite doesn't.
my DDs dont match up with the fronts but from far away you cant tell so

Yes, there are four different shades of the anthracite grey all having the same part number And aftermarket anthracite grey bullets, as already stated, are a different shade as well. This has been discussed once before.

Interesting. That was not my original question so thats why I didn't search, but thats nice to know. I hope the aftermarket anthracite is all one color.
