Sometime back when browsing for Valk stuff, I came across a site that was showing black studded side covers.......Very similiar to the Mustang seats, etc.  The were pretty reasonable. 

Unfortunately, I can not find that site.   Anyone have an idea of where to find these??

Thanks.

The only studded side covers I've seen were leather covered, with studs on the leather.

i believe that the following is what you are looking for.

mounting these requires drilling holes in your existing side covers.  just a word of caution, cracks have propogated from those holes in my case.  i have not contacted the vendor to ask what i might have done wrong (e.g. overtightened the associated fasteners).  i suggest that you do so (or perhaps another member will chime in) before you execute the installation.  in my opinion the look is awesome.  good luck, hope this helps.  cooldude

Yup, those were what I was remembering.....

Thanks for the info.  Not sure if I want to drill into that very flimsy plastic!!

I think I'll keep mine as is!!
