They look cool. They might make a small improvement in heat dissipation too...

BAGGERDSM, that's a nice shot!

$400-$500 bucs,the place is in las vegas.They also offer what they call the "show cut"which i gather has more brilliance than the standard diamond cut.
Alen ness and covington customs have matching diamond cut cowbells too!
BTW the fins will slice your knuckles up pretty good during washes so keep that in mind!
Also,do your powder coat first,if your going that route!

Well, first you powdercoat. Than you diamond cut.

The cut above in my pics is their show cut. Its the same style cut as the standard, but they also cut the less visible places like behind the pushrods on the heads, behinds the spark plugs on the heads and the add 3 rows of diamons on the base of the cyl. The look nice.
They charge 450.00 for standard and 550 for show cut on heads and cyls.

I like mine. I haven't cut my hands on them but wash cloths get caught all the time. No big deal though.
