Okay, believe me I do realize this is probably a moot point, but since I dont have much experience in this field I wanted to consult those that did before I make this swap.
I just purchased a Rycote WindShield Kit 4 from B&H for my Sennheiser MKH-416 and as Im sure you all know it comes with the standard Grey WindJammer (Dead Cat, etc). Now, where I have intentions of shooting will mostly be in dimly lit areas, large warehouses (for which I might not even use the 416), or outdoors at night, around working artists who probably wont appreciate any distractions. So I was thinking that a black WindJammer might be just that little bit less distracting and hopefully help lower the possibilities of the artists from getting annoyed with the booming. I contacted Rycote and one of their resellers is okay with swapping my new Grey WindJammer for a black one for free, so cost is a wash. I will probably also do the same for my Rycote Baby Ball Gag WindJammer if a black one is available.
The question is, is there any reason I may be missing that is something I should be considering by going with a black WindJammer over a Grey? Dirt? Heat Absorption? Etc? Also Im assuming the quality of the two would be the same.
Basically this:

Thanks guys and hope this isnt too stupid of a question.
And Senator, go easy man, I cant help it, I over think things way too much!
