Hi folks,

as i have decided to paint my Trumpy´s Patriot system in sand color, i wonder what will be the richt color for the radar "circle". Any type of grey? Or is the a specific FS number.

Thanks in advance for your help...

In some pics, the antenna looks rather greenish...

and if you check out this close-up, you'll notice two colors for the antenna lens (grey and green)
