Best 116619 (Smurf) Insert to create 116610 "Shark"??

[andyc]

Can anybody please recommend the best currently available 116619 insert to create the lovely looking ceramic "Shark"?

I've got an ARF 116610 incoming which I intend to use, but want to find a really good insert that will do it justice.

I've been perfectly happy with my stock Noob V7 insert. Like most rep inserts from the factories, it needed a paint mod and I've touched it up once or twice. Aftermarket inserts are most likely going to have white marker paint which is fine if you're OK with that. It's usually better quality paint with a clear coat that has much greater longevity. The Noob V7 is no longer made, but I would check the various rep offerings (Noob V8, JF, BP, etc.) and see if a TD will source just the insert for you. Many will, if they have a good relationship with the factory. Try Puretime.

I think mine is an older V5 or so, but I think it looks great.
