Checked the FAQ, didn't see it there... My MkII handle is starting to show discoloration (oxidation?) turning towards white from its usual black. Is there an easy way to restore its color? Alternatively, is there a way to get a replacement handle?

It could just be the natural aluminum color showing through due to the black finish rubbing off. It's apparently a chemical treatment of some sort that gives the handle its black appearance. I don't know, I guess you could try painting it, but I doubt it would look the same. Maybe black annodizing it is an option.
