+1 - Price is very high, but I too love the look and decided to splurge and order a set. They should be here in a few days. Don't understand why they are so expensive?X2 - interested to know how they fit. Love the look, not the price, but think I might be able to do something else for myself at some point.

High quality chrome? Good construction? Laser precision cut? Or maybe just because they're the only one that makes 'em.
Well, I took off my plastic fork shields today and didn't have to take off the front tire. I used a pair of needle nose vise grips and carfully locked on to the heads of the screws. Once they broke loose, I worked them out with my fingers. After I put on the Kewl metal flame covers, I'm going to use hex bolts instead of the philip screws. Then I'll be able to take off and on easily.:headbang:
Ya, thankfully taking off the front tire isn't necessary, I just inserted a small bit into the screws and took a wrench to it. Should take 10 minutes tops. They're pretty sturdy and the chrome is good but ya, pricey. I got mine second hand off craigslist.
Looks good goober44 If I could fab up something half that good, I would give it a shot. I guess that's why I ordered a set...lol These must take forever to get. I ordered them 13 days ago and still haven't heard anything yet, but my screws are out and plastic shields off.What? someone actually makes something like this? J/K Saw them online and balked at the price, so i made my own. Did have to take off the front wheel to get the screws out. They were too tight for my off set screwdriver. Replaced the screws with bolts.
