Some reproduction blue stripes (do not recall which manufacturer) use a much lighter blue than factory so they are not exact. The factory blue is so dark that it appears black. Not until you put something next to it which is black (like a piece of black electrical tape), can you tell its blue. Other than that, you probably can't tell the difference.

Personally, I prefer the look of the stripes which have the lighter blue.
