I choose to use better material and not add a colour that some may or may not want.
In addition to that, yes it may look a little more trick when you first put then on, See how trick they look after a few scratches.

Noel, with respect, yes it is needed in my opinion, since every time a product comes out, that is anything like yours everyone else gets accused of copying (even in some cases if they showed off their ideas first!), despite as I have already written elsewhere, the original idea on towers with seperate alloy camber bases came from K-Factory as I pointed out a few weeks back.
Companies do copy each other yes, especially if an idea is good (all cars have four wheels at the end of the day, we will say that is copying next
) but when other brands add more in terms of anodising or etching or both it is unfair to constantly jump on a thread and insist yours are cheaper, better value and higher quality (without even knowing what grade material is used by others in some cases), I cannot speak about the Tresray "copies" of yours, but I know for a fact you have not seen the Exotek ones yet in the flesh, so how can comments be made about inferior quality materials?
Your products are superb, I am not knocking them at all, but so are many others though and competition in the market is great, you will never have the only product of a type in the market place if it is a good one, others will always attempt to make the same or similar.
If your mounts were anodised, then laser etched, then distributed through model shops and dealers all over the country (not just sold direct), I am sure they would be not too far off the price of the others too...
Not looking to argue with you, far from it, but the constant shouts of copying and comparing is really not needed.....
