I installed them, they are sweeeet. All black with 5inch width. Really enjoy them and the install was ok. People had said to use a wire brush to clean the paint off the thread of the screws....it did not work at all. I had to buy a die kit from hardware store and scored the thread which took a little bit because the screws were heavily covered with paint. After that it was a easy.

I used a die kit to get paint off screw threads and a torque wrench which worked great. I will post pictures here shortly on my next break.

Here are some pics of mine. I used a round wire brush that fits my drill to chase the threads. Mine are the 4 inch version.
