Black on helmet wings?

[MikerScout]

What is the black on the helmet wings?  Velcro to keep the visor shut?  Elastic for the chin strap?  paint?

Sven is correct. That's the way the elastic was rigged in the original helmets.

Thanks guys!

Keep in mind that there is no requirement to rig your chin cup up that way in the CRL. In fact the chin cup is optional, even for Level 2.
