Cool Road 6 Customs Bars

Who has some and what are you general thoughts on the bars? Quality, finish, etc. Any pics? Looking to buy these bars and want to be sure before I do so any pics would help my decision.
Thanks

Great bars for the $. Good welds, well constructed. I had (traded my Nightster up on a LO) the 14's on my Nightster and LOVED them. You won't be sorry.
