or you can explain n plead your case over a really nice romantic dinner.

I am sure you will be happy with your purchase. good luck with the wife =)
True...she probably wont even notice. I will get to the mailbox before she does. haha

I had some regret even after I put them on. Chrome are so much cheaper and I dont understand why. Next time it's "plasti dip".

Thanks for the honesty...

Anyone is welcome to correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the BP's were initially introduced for the millennium models that came out in 2000. Therefore, due to rarity and demand, the price is what it is.
