Default Guys with Patriot Dual Golds please come in here
Just got my patriot springs in today, this is what I received. Are the spring locators supposed to be black steel? I thought they were stepped more than just once on the spring locator and silver in color. Please just let me know if your springs look like this or not. Thanks.

Black oxide will vary in tint. The locator in the picture is correct.
