Ya, I custom made this...Can have them anodized in about 4 different colors as well, black/red/blue/clear like the one you see.


Ya, its already got some of the female comments, as their eyes light up when they see it.

Basically designed after the C5R/Delrin hardbar....just I wanted one out of aluminum not delrin.
