Yes I just looked this up about 3 hrs ago and haven't got a chance to post my
thoughts.

- Are there any grey rubber parts?  I can't think of any off the top of my head.

- Maybe color 376?

I definately want a number defined for this color since it is common enough to
make using chrome unacceptible.

Are you going to support the ldconfig file in the next version of L3P?  This
would make coming up with different color sets easy.
