No. I've never noticed a color change.

Just to clarify, I just used a mixture of spices, Balsamic vinnegar and EVOO and sometimes a bit of lemon or lime juice, time in marinade was usually around 8 to 10 hours.

Could it be the olive oil that's combatting the effect of the acid in the vinnegar?

I don't know enough to be in this thread really, I just love cooking and sort od stumbled upon this simple marinade.
