    Looks like The upper is anodized and the lowers Cerakoted.

    Don't feel so bad,my colt Canada rifle is the exact same thing...except it cost me 5 times and much as these lowers and uppers.
    It's not that I'm new to this....I'm just an idiot...

    Upper looks like the older billet aluminum. ..
    Lower the newer forged aluminum that they coated differently.

    Agreed. I have an earlier billet set and this looks like the same finish.

    These can always be refinished to match.

    Ewwww. I cerakote in my spare time and that is not cerakote OR someone really over applied the coating.
    If you are going to build your AR piece by piece then you are gonna see variances. build the whole thing then refinish your desired color.
