Is there any idea on price range with these??

That depends on how much work I need to put into them.

The design, material (1/4" aluminum for the rack and .060" stainless for the brackets) ,ss hardware and water-jet cutting and bending will be in the $20-$30 range (+ shipping). If you would want the edges rounded over, (that takes about an hour), and polishing (that also takes about an hour), I'd ask for another $20.

man, that looks great! If I could do that, I would start up a biz selling custom fender tips...seems like you could do that really easily, and undercut the competition significantly. Just an idea, but I would love to see what you could do in this area, and would be much more willing to pay you than $70-100 for a fender tip from someone else....and if the aluminum is polished nicely, for the right price, who cares if its not chrome?

Fender tips,fender tips fender tips,front and rear. Did I say fender tips? I agree, I would rather pay a self-motivated, industrious, creative member who took the time to engineer a product for our bikes than pay some deep pocket supply house.

Are you still making the billet racks? I have a 03 Volusia with a mustang seat. Can you give me a estimate on cost?
Thanks
