Masks available for Motorola VT-71

I have successfully made a few masks for the Motorola VT-71 TV. They are very close to the original masks in both shape and texture.

I'd like to know how important the color is to collectors. They come out of the mold as a nice cream color, but the originals were spray painted a bluish-gray on the face only. Collectors might like them as they are, a nice clean-looking cream color. I could dye the material a gray, then everyone would have to have gray. Or, I could leave them the cream color, then customers could paint them themselves if they wanted to, or leave them natural.

I see that a lot of televisions have even bright white masks. Does it really matter that much?

Your input will be appreciated.
Photos will be coming to my web site at www.renovatedradios.com as soon as I get them photographed and uploaded. Probably tonight. Look in the PARTS section.
