Matt is a real gentleman to deal with and he gave me his technical opinion on how and from where to lighten these without compromising safety.

Holes were machined in accordance with Matts suggestions.








After that , two coats of flat black powder coating







Sorry for the crappy pics but my camera needs service asap. Anyway, now they look like DSE parts are supposed to look

And then the weight, over 200 grams less!!! 1650 grams!! That is way more than I wished for. Thank you Matt for help - beers are on me, hope in this years Sema
