Default Springer apes

I have a 2000 Heritage Springer and I am going to put 16" apes on, but I cant decide if I should go with Nash Gimps or Wild1's. Anyone have pics of the front with either of these bars? Suggestions welcome.

I used to have 14" gimps on my bike, got pics in my album. I'm now running BR sweeping beaters.

Thanks Milty, any quality issues cause the change, or just looks?

No. Nash gimps are nice, the powder coating isn't top notch sorta light. I liked the shape and they are well made. I went with beefier risers so I went with beefier bars that was my only reason for change. I actually liked the hand position so much I had the new ones made to the same configuration.
