I'm not a skull guy, but those do look great if you're into skulls.

I have them and they used my bike on their website. I didn't get the skull version, though.

I emailed them and said for the price, I need the 'lower ' inserts too, having only the upper makes the bike look very unbalanced, specially on the left side, it feels like the lower piece fell off .
But they are super cool, they made me consider making my own with a decal or something on top of my existing Chrome covers.

Honestly, the quality and the finish are outstanding. They're not like the cheapy feeling HD inserts at all. These things have some weight behind them...like a forging. I was impressed such that I wrote back telling them how much I liked their product and they wanted to use pics of my bike on their website, so let them. I'm NOT an attention ***** and decided to do that because they're just starting up and the product is so good, in my opinion.
