Ok, I just got this back from having a bunch of work done. So as not to go into it all again, read here if you don't already know:
http://www.cotep.org/forum/showthread.php?t=510
Anyway, I want some really nice looking grips to finish off the transformation. So, I thought you guys might chip in and help out. Everyone take a moment to post pics/links to what you think would finish off the job. They can be Sarge's, Cappi's, something you found on eBay.....I don't care.
If someone post the grips I wind up using, I will send you a little something as a show of my appreciation.
Here's what they will be going on:

Thanks AutoMag!
The OP should also look at Sparkies ironwoods as well, especially the checkered ones! I may have to send him a set of my own personal grips and have him do the checkering.

I like what's on there, what is it?
I'm a huge fan of VZ Aliens too...these would really set off the black frame.

Just for your info these grips turned out allot better than I expected I was a little leery of snake skin but they really are cool and functional.

I have two set's of VZ's that I really love, a set of ETC Frag's in slim with the thumb mag release cutout, and a set of Operators. I also had a set made of Oak from Scott Sensing that I'm in love with. If Brownell's could start carrying the full line up on VZ's I'd have a few more I imagine.

These grips look amazing on that CBOB.... Those would look sweet on a black frame too.
I think a set just like that, Slim line for my DW CCO would be sweet ;)
Are those Slims? Because I also need a set of woods for my VBOB still and something like those would look sweet but they would have o be Slims.
Sorry now I'm kinda hijackin the thread, I'll PM you...
Excellent work...
