I noticed today that after a TR I have lost the Armor Appearance Kits that were attached to my older Armor. The lost Appearance Kits (Dark/Steel 2 Heavy Armor) are not currently available as a Cosmetic which is the reason I always hung on to them.

For those not familiar with Appearance Kits, before the current cosmetics were available beginning with Update 8, players were able to purchase Appearance Kits which, unlike cosmetics, permanently altered the appearance of the underlying item, opposed to the cosmetic slot offered later (u15?).

A number of the appearance kits (Dark Leaf for example) later became cosmetics and in some cases those appearance kits did separate into new cosmetics, DarkSteel has not and it is (was) still a good looking cosmetic. I had always hoped that like the Dark Leaf it would be made into a new cosmetic (why am I calling something that has been around 8 plus years new?) I would get the cosmetic.
