You know why these are $280? Because they say "ASTRO" on the side of them!

If you have the white ones already you could do this:

The plastic you would be spraying is only held on with Phillips head screws. Take them off, wash in warm soapy water, get a very fine grade sandpaper/glasspaper with low adhesive. Sand it slightly all over, get your spray paint for plastic and then apply that.

There's an art to applying spray paint, should be some tutorials on how to get the best results if your a novice. Also given your creativity/ability you could get a little innovative.

Stencil your GT/Tag/Anything you like out of some cardboard the length of the top piece of plastic. Carefully apply that. You could also get some gold leaf and apply that anywhere you like.

Also lefty...I assume it is reference to the BXR in Halo 2.

The only difference is the color scheme, I emailed this to them and that was their answer.
