I feel like it would be better to override the skin tone to match 47's usual one rather than including an entire new PRIM with the mod for something so small. Doing this once wouldn't add a significant amount of file size or deploy time, but I don't want to make a habit out of it, since it would start adding up eventually.

Making a new texture to override the skintone would be significantly worse for filesize (For some context, 2K textures are ~2-4MB each), this fix in total is almost 1/15th the size, doing vague napkin maths in my head.
Even if we alter the texture via variables in the entity (which, in itself, is very tedious and I'd rather not do that), that may not be 100% accurate. I don't think adding altered custom PRIMs, or custom PRIM heads, will start any kind of habit tbh.
I dunno, I just find it very weird that some random guy is behind the mask and IO have never really changed it, when no other suit does this (to my knowledge at least).
EDIT: Looking into material swapping right now.
In what scenario would the user see this?
AFAIK they'd never see the head itself - it's the neck being colored differently that's the issue. We've discussed this on Discord in more depth.
47's head is not underneath the mask. While this is a very minor problem, it strikes me as inconsistent that IO would do this (In fact, i'm fairly certain they did this in a hurry back in 2016-17) and not alter the mask afterward to fit both outfit and disguise heads.
Thanks to Zach on discord for the above image.
The tell is that there's a noticeable difference in the neck's skin colour if you look in the inventory.
I fixed this by modifying 47's S3 weightedprim head usually associated with such suits, removed his facial area (including his lips, not pictured):
And we get this!:
An overly-complicated solution to fix a very minor problem. Perfect for this mod.
This was made for the projects board, a pull with this fix will be added if the chore pull goes through.
