Default Anyone Try These Lowers?

Been looking at these lowers for a bit now. A lot less than the HD ones but are they any good? Says money back if not satisfied but don't need to go through it if they are crap.

The cheapest I can find in Canada is around $750 plus 13% tax. The ebay ones are a lot cheaper than that.

Would love to see some pics from the guys who have tried them!

Looks like a pretty good/fair deal if you've got a vivid black bike.

You can buy the HD lowers primed for 449.95 at 20% off thats 379.00. That's what I did and bought a can of vivid black and some good clear coat for another 25.00. Came out great and saved a couple of hundred off the regular HD price.

Check Ebay for take offs. I found an older set on there for less than a hundred, painted them and sold them for 300.

It's crazy what the HD vented lowers are selling for on ebay, you can buy new HD for what used one's are selling for. I've been trying to score a deal on there for month's. My dealer usually gives me a good discount. I'll probably end up going that route since I can paint small stuff myself.
