you can always paint them with great results. A friend of mine had done this several time ago and i thought they were the vti ones.

painting might be the better option aswell im thinking. looked online for green needles or even any needle kits and there is none at all i could find. any ideas what type of paint would work best and to prime or not to prime?

I think I heard of these model paint being used with good results. You know, the paint used for little airplane/car models you have to construct and paint yourself.
