Well, they are plastic and overpriced. Good news is they are thick and give your groin about 80% reduction in heat particularly on the right side. Easy to install but I don't like having to remove some of the rubber spacers when a longer replacement bolt would have allowed them.

Pretty much my only beef is that for the price,$82.79, it would have been nice if it came with some rubber washers to help isolate vibration...I purchased these because a friend has them and I like the idea of heat displacement...He's on his second set due to cracking from vibration...
