Ring Brothers manufactures them and DSE currently has exclusive rights to sell them. Extremely awesome looking hinges IMHO.

That is what Ring Brothers told me pertaining to the billet hinges DSE, or a DSE distributor, sells...

I just bought two sets from Ring Brothers for the Red Witch and Stielow's Camaro X. I needed them anodized black and Mike took care of it. Scott also just got a set that he needs to post pics of. Nice stuff.

Yep, I have a set of black annodized hood hinges and they are incredible. They have a few small tweaks compared to the standard billet hinges so the annodizing doesn't get messed up when pressing the bearings in.

Mike asked that I not post pictures until Monday or so, as he's working out a few details that I'll announce then.

Can't wait for the pics. The black anodizing would fit right into my engine bay scheme.
