Black TUUK LS2.. anyone know if the ones on Total Hockey are actually black plastic or painted?

This has probably been asked a dozen times but I couldn't find an old topic..

The holders on my Nike Flexlite 12s are kind of beat.. and I'm looking to replace them.. but I dont' want white ones any more.. they get too dirty too fast and I've always wanted black holders. I just don't want to have to resort to spray painting some white holders..that always looked mad tacky to me.

Also.. the steel on my original holders is still in tact.. would it be bad to switch that steel to the new holder/is that possible?? Sorry for all the questions.. I've always just stuck with the stock tuuk holder that come on the skate when I buy them.

Anyone know where I can possibly get some or even the TUUK customs.. which I had on a previous Nike (Fedorov) boot.. would be nice! Thanks in advance!

PS: I did see some on sale at Total Hockey Bauer Light Speed 2 limited edition black holder http://www.totalhock...d=5130&div_id=2 BUT are these actually black or are they spray painted black? I honestly can't tell.

They are actually black.

I thought they were dyed black? I had some black LS2's put on my skates at Total Hockey and on a couple of deep scrapes/gouges on the holders you can see the white. I can snap a picture if you want. They definitely aren't just painted though.

There are new black ones out that are from Bauer. All the big online places have them now. TH did/does dye holders for there custom program.
