Headset looks good chatman, cant decide about the spacers though, was looking at some for mine but can decide if I like the ribbed effect or the all solid. |

I thought ribbed was the default choice... I just changed my headset... no pics... over and done with too quick... really didn't realise how easy it is to have a solid headset...
