ya i'm not diggin the bronze too much, i do like the c-8's but i'm still deciding between them. i have narrowed it down to the flat blacks. more than likely i'm goin w/ the slipstreams,wish i could see more pics of the c-8's in black MOUNTED on a car.

thanks for the votes fellas!

actually i sold em, i liked them but i got tired of them.

i WAS going to powdercoat them black if i didnt sell em but they sold quick at $350,only six months old too.

thanks for the offer on the gunmetal slipstreams but i'm not buying quite just yet.after x-mas is when i'll be in the market.
