Thanks guys!!! Cuda, You cannot shape these grips. They are Graphite arbors wrapped in a carbon fiber fabric, then epoxied so that it does not move. You could shape the graphite prior to the installation of the fabric, but you would have to know exactly what size, shape, taper, length, etc. That is not something I would tackle through email or over the phone.

This one is for sale, if anyone is interested....


Thanks,

Nice looking build...

That's a funny name, I grew up in Key Largo.. next door neighbor had 5 sons and a daughter, they had a 17' Cobia boat with 70hp motor, that boat went through pure hell. In Florida Bay and ocean side riding to the bar, fishing, diving, and water skiing for years, even made a few trips to the Bahamas. The boat was referred to as "The mean green machine"...
