If anyone gets a non-colour matching folding stock insert, or finds the cheek weld of the stock uncomfortable, stephenhoskins32 on Reddit used Gnutzguy 's YouTube instructions to paracord wrap his folder's stock:

That looks awesome! I'm sure it'd be even nicer with some ODG weaved into it. Lots of applications for that kind of stuff.
Still, I think that TI should be letting us know if/why these folders are coming with mismatched furniture. The fixed stock models are coming with the correct buttstocks, so it seems strange that the folders don't have the furniture shown in the photos. I know that factory samples are "best of the best" but they should still be representative of the shipped product.
what do you call the buyers? you're are one sided, it takes two to tango. there is a WTB ad in EE that says he will pay $1500 for a new SE.

Out of curiosity, I decided to take an average of the colors in both photos, it's definitely supposed to be a red cheekpiece, according to the 5x5 blocks I picked at random.
If you compare it to the photo posted, it's night and day

I see mostly bright red, which might be a bit much. This two tone black and red may work better -> https://canada.michaels.com/en/parachute-550-parachute-cord/10547356.html?r=g&cm_mmc=PLASearch-_-google-_-MICH_Shopping_CA_N_Beads+%26+Jewelry_N_Smart_BOPIS_N-_-Generic&kpid=go_cmp-12650001304_adg-125437386452_ad-511040951006_pla-1007950801825_dev-m_ext-_prd-10547356&gclid=CjwKCAjw7rWKBhAtEiwAJ3CWLA0Auj2tKfzSWMAXjxTG4NUkvw-WK50h3Itj8AfzMV64LrmTz4aT8hoCmkUQAvD_BwE

Hardly scientific. All of those photos were taken in vastly different lighting and the one was blatantly retouched marketing. RGB Values here don't mean anything. Don't get your panties in a knot till we start seeing more photos in other customers hands with better lighting.
For sure, it's an averaged color over 4*25 pixel blocks taken at random, hardly pantone colors. The point of doing this was to demonstrate that we were sold rifles with red stock panels no matter which marketing imagery you look at. If you ordered an OD Green rifle and it came to you as spruce blue, would you be thrilled about it? Over the next week or so we'll see more of these in people's hands, so hopefully by then we have an idea of how prevalent this is/if it's actually an issue.

If anyone is inconsolable over their brown folder, sell it to me lol
Careful, I just got an infraction from a Mod for saying I’ll buy one if anyone wants to get rid of one they bought in this thread…
For WTB outside of EE?
