That's right, I'm asking advice regarding the color of my AR rail covers. Boredom and scotch is an awesome combination!

Anyway, I have a Daniel Defense M4a1 that looks like this, only it has a black B5 SOPMOD stock on it:



Now, the FDE Cerakote finish it came with is very dark, so here's what I'm thinking. Replace the current rail guards with black ones (something more like this):


And that will fit nicely with the Mil Spec+ vertical foregrip I ordered from DD:


Then I'll eventually change the grip, stick to black optics and a black stock. For my next AR I may go down the FDE route (or some other combination, besides I live in Florida, not Afghanistan ), but with this finish it's practically impossible to find matching colors that I like. I can't give you a final picture to evaluate, but you get the idea. What do you think? I think it would look pretty good, but I'm always open to a difference of opinion.

I thought this thread was about truck bed rails.
