Is the green outline too limish or ok
I was looking at putting a pair of these on my M40 Blue Luftwaffe Coat

I have to respectfully disagree with conrad uno. His photo looks like the Sturm supplied shoulder boards. At the Front sells these insignia. The green is too dark. Trident boards appear "Limish" as you mentioned.
Our unit buys their FD boards & collar tabs from Janke. The color matches original boards & tabs in one of our members collection.
You won't be disappointed.

My 2 pfenigs,

No those are from Trident. Janke is the best match IMHO. I'm not sure if there is a dealer in your neck of the woods who carries Janke products. If necessary, PM me and I can forward a email address of a good friend who deals with Janke here in the USA. I'm sure he can forward the items to you.
