I think Neal's may have some black ones, I don't think you'll like them though with all the give in the foam while casting. You could also buy some bulk round eva in the color you like from Mudhole, Amity or @#$%& among others and put an arbor in the bore than shape and size the grip to what you like.

It would be more work, but your better bet is to buy a nice cork full wells, or make a foam full wells, and flock either in the color or your choice. That will give you the firmness necessary for casting a fly rod for long periods.

I miss Dr. Tebbitts, he was a hoot & a half.
