How come I can't find a raw fork with the burnt weld marks? Everyone is dark grey looking or a light silver. Non match a raw frame. Any suggestions?

It's the heat treating that causes the dark grey color.And you should probably get over it cause you want your forks heat treated

It is actually a rust/corrosion preventative that gives it the grey color.
