I actually prefer how yours look compared to the polished aluminum.

Yeah, I'm the same way. Polished aluminum is too much trouble to keep polished, and I like the satin look. My tunnel ram was polished and I had it blasted.

Lee, I really like the look of yours blasted & painted, but I think I will stick with the Patina look they have for now.

I'd sure give $70 for them if they don't have a bunch of holes in them.
