I believe I had the "vanish" on my Accutec Redline cam, circa 1999. The anodize on my original 98 Striker Redline was very good too..Illusion? Maybe I have them reversed, I couldn't google up any pics of the either umfortunately.

And the original Defiant ..1995. Loved that anodize. Unfortunately those finishes are too expensive and too time consuming for mass production today[:@]
