Theres a few that do S/S but open ended ones..? Do they have to be S/S why not chrome a set from him.or tell him to start doing them in S/S he might sell a few..

Scoot, there was a thread on hers about just this:
http://scooterotica.org/tempforum/viewt ... 9&start=10 give that a go, by the way i have a pair of the SS open ended ones you can have for nowt. They are with out doubt the most gash looking parts i have ever brought, and iv brought a lota crap...

Have seen what look like a good set on ebay think theres a link to them on the thread i mentioned above. About £65 i think, bit steep but did look good in the pic. If you were going to weld them onto the leggies then id suggest cutting down an old pair as its quite a simple job for a good welder and even with labour it should work out cheaper.
Also try and check on what runners the bend has been made for otherwise you might get Vespa rally ones say, and the find that the curve of the runner doesnt match the ally runner...
Post some pics when/if you buy the em, would be intresting to see the quality.
