Im just wishing someone would make a more street looking version like the chrome and carbon one. Its been done and it looks great someone just has to make it here in the US.

Making one in fiber glass she bring down the price. Not to mention the price of this one is sky high since it's in dubai where bathroom sinks are made of gold, and they build hotels in the ocean. This is chump change to them!

Realistically, this piece in fiber glass can be made and sold for a fraction of the price!
