Default Carlini Blems

Thinking of dropping some coin on some Carlini 1.5" Black blems. My question is has anybody order black blems before and wished they had drop the extra dough on new one's instead. I just don't how bad the blemish will be, I can deal with something very minor but a huge scratch no way. I just don't want to feel like a dumba$$ for not going with a new one. WTB the 14" gangsters and Magnum shield +8 on all the cables, I currently have a 14" Burly Gorilla ape and was able to use the existing cables except for the control switches had to extend those. Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks

I purchased a set of Black 1 1/4" 14" gangsta ape blem's with boob risers right before Christmas. I looked very hard to find any blem and couldn't. I'm extremely happy with the quality and looks. Get them you'll be happy.

You should be able to cover a ' normal ' blemish , plenty of add-ons you can find for that purpose...take a shot...

My chrome blems were perfect to my eye no scratches anywhere

I think I’ll take the jump and get the blemish. I could use the extra money to get the high roller risers. Thanks y’all

I bought a set of chrome blemished drag bars (Carlini)similar to Harley’s Street-slammers and had them powdercoated gloss black for less than the Harley bars. I couldn’t find the blemish on them either before powdercoating.
