The custom version was colored dark like it is on P99. It did not show up untinted in era. Anyone who played back then would be able to tell you this. It even says so in the text you quoted.

I think they mean the cowl as in the actual unmodified cowl. They were discussing the visual tradeoff between the custom and non-custom version. If both were tinted then they wouldn't have specified that the version that shows up as an actual cowl had a tint, but they specifically say they think the black tint of the cowl fits better than the custom ogre plate helm look of the custom version.

If you've got proof that I'm wrong, though, drop it.

Ask around. Custom Cowl always had the black look, and regular Cowl had no graphic at all.

Source: I had a Custom Cowl of Mortality on Live, I bought it in 2001, and actually still have it on Tunare server. (formerly E`ci)

The newsgroup post I linked above literally says it had a graphic.
