OK first off I don't know how many people this will affect BUT it was something that plagues me and I finally found a solution. If you have a clear skirt on your mask (for whatever reason) it can be dyed and made any color you want. Here's how I did mine: 1) go to the store and find RIT brand clothing dye, preferably the liquid form. 2) you'll want to disassemble your mask(unless you want the entire thing colored). For me I just wanted the skirt dyed. 3) get a pyrex bowl or big pot (big enough to hold enough water to cover the mask). 4)boil water 5)remove from heat and add all parts to be dyed and entire bottle of dye(not sure this much is necessary but I can vouch that this much will work). 6) place bowl with dye and mask parts in oven at 200 degrees F and bake for 2-10 hours(the longer the darker). 7) remove from dye solution and scrub under cold water.
BE CAREFUL disposing of dye solution!
I will post before/after pictures later and a report after I get to use it.
