Bottomscraper- you could try Bamboo Reef in S.Fran CA.
www.bambooreef.com. They may have the parts you are looking for. I don'd know if they will sell them buy might be worth a try. We are indeed running a trade up program for old Dacor regs. Trade in an old Dacor reg, and you can purchase a new Mares reg at an extreme discount. Mares MR12 Rebel for $149.00 or an Abyss for $299. Normal price is 249$ and 499$ respectively. feel free to PM me if you want more info on the trade up, or bamboo.
Bnelson- it is a V42, and I agree it is sick. Sorry no smokey black, I think the chrome looks pretty sweet though. You could always spray paint it..
