I attempted to machine a version of the Cobra Light bars and they turned out OK but not quite right. Would like to find an old set that I could reverse engineer and try again. If anyone would be willing to part with an old pair I would make them a new set as a thank you. Note: They wouldn't look exactly the same, wouldn't want to a call a from a patent attorney. message me if your interested. http://www.cruisercustomizing.com/cobra-billet-lightbar-valkyrie-97-99/part/BLV4-0140

I really only need one, to use as a pattern.
If you aren't interested in trading, want to sell I may be interested if the price is right.

I have one (I forget which side) I'd be willing to loan you... it has a tiny blemish on the top - so tiny I didn't see it in the picture when I bought it. I have the main part, that is... I don't have the little back part where it clamps to the forks... -Mike

Let's not say ripped... all kinds of things could have happened... perhaps the project didn't work out and the part is dusty and forgotten on the shelf... life throws us stuff that's more important than half a lightbar with a scratch on it all the time... a little help remembering can't hurt anything...  -Mike
