Been looking for those myself, I check ebay periodically but nothings came up the past couple of weeks. But I guess you managed to get you some, they look good. Bet they were kinda pricey.

I like those a lot, I can't believe some aftermarket company hasn't made them yet. Is there not a demand for them I guess? I'm in the boat where I can't justify the $300+ pricetag I normally see for them on ebay.

x2 on the "too rich for my blood"

I think they look awesome though: clean with a little bit of flair.

BTW, what size and brand tips are you running? And i like that you have flat black stripes with the flat black Berger mod. Well done
