His opinion is that anyone can do a "knock-off"
True, but we all know you had the originals way back when (not to mention the inventory story), so I don't think anyone here will give you any crap about having reproductions.

Hey Fabs, i used Eastwood spray grey on the all-grey JGEs. You should be able to get it over there, if not i could send you some...
John, the caps were from AR daisy mags i think. They are billet, but were a little loose so i had them machined and used set screws to hold them in.

no... not really fabs, they came out a little too dark to be mistaken for genuine. hard to tell from that photo as it's a bit too bright. i liked them though and it was a lot less work than polishing

Mike was as RED as his car! That photo was at the largest DRKC field of all time (21 cars).
