Too expensive for me as they would cost around $900 by the time I got them .
So mine will get a coat of satin black .
Do you know what vendor has them, I was hoping to keep the vent windows on this build..

Thanks Scott, I was going to check with Midwest. I should go through all the sets I have here, I might be surprised if I actually have a set...

Just happened to be working on mine today. A little weathered but still a little shine on them.
