I bought a set, had them powder coated satin black and promptly installed them backwards.... problem corrected- sheesh.

These are a must have product for a 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Nice that's definitely a better mouse trap! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)
Any plans to offer them in black?

Someone I know does phosphate treatment, which he recommended for this. I have a couple samples for him to do in the next week or so. If that works I'll be offering them in black.

They will be available in the next 2 weeks. I have 25 pairs ready to go out for powdercoating now.
I'm considering having them done in both orange (for visibility) and black (for stealth).
I have a fresh batch of the fronts ready now too, and I'm planning on having some of them powdercoated black with just the loop left shiny.

The perfect solution especially if you have the oil cooler up front, very happy with mine.

There was some issue with the original loop attachment. One of the early customers showed me a better way - neodymium super magnets!

I'll mail you a pair of the magnets for $7.50.
But you might find some at Lowes for a similar price.

I'll mail them tomorrow. Attach them with a drop of superglue so they don't wander around.

I just ordered a set of the newly designed rear tie-downs; they look like a very nice upgrade. I got them in black and can't wait to install them. Thanks Chris. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
