DESCRIPTION
After abandoning the Imperial Army, it would matter much rather he get a new set of armour of keep the same one he used during his time. Most of the set was already beaten down and old, so he decided to just repair and refurbish the chest, gloves, armlets and belt. The rest he dumped, so he could invest the rest of his credits in weapon and starship upgrades. Also most people would not recognize him as an Imperial without the helmet. That was the biggest giveaway. He also changed the colour, painting it in black graphite / dark grey. Not only would make it hard to promptly recognize him as an ex-Imperial, but also would help to cover and smudge the Imperial symbol in one the the shoulder pads.
