Well guys...here's the lowdown... The bars are pretty cool. the only complaints that I have are: Horrible blind spots with the spikes, Too small of a hole on the bottom for internal wiring, had to open it up myself quite a bit...and the grip portion of the bars was a little over 3/4" too long. The grips wouldn't slide on even close to where they should be. I had to hack off the ends myself. All that aside, there pretty cool.

He builds the grip area a little long to make sure it's not too short. I had to cut about 2" off mine. I'd rather it be that way tho. I ran all new internal wiring for new switches and run/turn lights in the mirrors without having to open the bottom hole any. I did have to drill all upper holes, but that was cool as I could put them where I needed. I had to run 9 wires to one side and 10 to the other.
The bars look great!
