Good idea. I bet you could also use a fire extinguisher bracket/holder.

They look killer!, I am in the same boat [no pun intended!] I just cant justify spending $$$$$ for the billet ones [they are nice though]. How did you fasten them?, just bolt them to the side of the engine area?, or are they attached somehow at the bottom as well?

I am gonna look and see if you can get pipe in colors, or, if it can be painted?

Great Idea!

Krylon has special paint that bonds itself to the plastic for outdoor furniture, should work on a boat?

I made some for my 6" fenders out of flat stock aluminum. Then I gave it a brushed look with some fine sandpaper. They're not billet but for about $20 in materials and fastners they look damn good. If someone can tell me how to post a pic I'll do it.
