I bought a set from Doug at NAXJA. Send him a PM to see when he is making some more. I really like mine a lot. They require some fitting & adjusting, but well worth it.

He usually puts them on Ebay, so it's highest bidder. That being said, mine were cheaper than the BW's or Rustys. Mine were $309.95 shipped. I really like them a lot.

NICE! and thanks for the pics! I was wondering though how flexy they are? Cuz NAXJA had a pretty big thread on the difference and how flexy ones (ie Rustys) are better since you can buy them individually and theyll bend instead of break...just wondering what you think since you have a set of Dougs. Thanks and nice rig!

These aren't flexible at all, but they are very rugged. Supposedly tougher than BW's. I was all ready to buy Rusty's but then I started hearing some bad things about them, saw these and figured why not.

Go to the link for the NAXJA poll and PM Doug. He doesn't make them that often because the cost of the materials up front are expensive, but if you asked about a group purchase or something like that he may make some more.
