I believe that the only Rhino that Brunswick ever made that was plastic was the "Cosmic" Rhino. By your description, I would say that you have the grey and wine Rhinos which were both urethane

The greyish black could be the Pearl Rhino which was Urethane

The urethane Rhinos (with no other letters or whatnot) were the Black, Grey, Wine, Blue, Cobalt, Black Pearl, and Red. And if I recall right, the plastic Rhinos only had the serial number in the center of the grip and not the Brunswick lettering.
