I have an urban grey P07 and I will probably be putting an od green rmr on it and I thought that an od green backstrap would look good with that setup. I couldn't find any color other than black online. I would want the new od green color, I don't really like the green that they put on the older model. And it would have to be the medium size. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions of where I could get one I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance

I?ve no idea when they will be available for purchase. Usually new items are slow to have spare parts show up in the CZ-USA web store.

I do have another suggestion, though: Rit dye.  It is rather easy to dye the polymer on the stovetop and Rit offers helpful ?recipes? online to match various colors.

I am planning to dye one of my UG frames "Caribou" brown soon

Starting with a grey blackstrap you can easily dye it green with RIT dye (start light as you can always make it darker but once too dark you can't make it lighter)

Easy to dye light colored parts (sand, tan, grey, etc)  darker but about impossible to dye dark part lighter.

Thanks a lot, I'll have to experiment with some rit dye!
