I have the inxx ones, they had gone a bit rusty which is a common complaint so i painted them in gloss black. Pretty happy with the look of them now and they are great to have. Only issue is some report is that it pushes up the rear corners of the bonnet. Not a major issue on mine. Also some drilling is required.

+1 (okay, I didn't paint mine yet but they are going a bit rusty)

Also the instructions that came with my INXX ones were sh1te but I got some help with mine so I was OK.
