Besides black, anyone dyed their green handle a different shade?

Or--does anyone know a good source for replacement scales? I've seen vz grips but not blown away by their designs.
 
Cuscadi does a variety of scales for the 0300. I haven't bought them for that model...but I have Cuscadi scales on my 0550, 0551, and 0350; and I'm happy with all of them.
They do G10, micarta, wood, CF, krinite, CTEK, etc.

I can only comment on black, but for the general knowledge of the group, I have used Feibings leather dye on BK9 macarta handles because I didn't like the greyness of them. I got an over all even black.

As for Rit dye, I dyed some 100% nylon rope a deep purple, and also used a brown to dye Tilley hats made from natural (no bleached) canvas. Both jobs took two packs to get the colour deep.
 
Using RIT dye, you can only dye G10 to a darker color. You won't be able to turn them blue, or red, or any other such color. Darker green, brown, and black will probably be your only options.
