Thanks bro.

I personally don't like the different colour metals together. I'd prefer the rubber washer. If its quality you're looking for then I'd paint the stainless steel washer black.

Note taken.

It would have been nice if Zeetoys offered it in titanium. I would have been all over that one...

you could make it appear Ti probably by using a thin or translucent blue and spray painting it.

I would test it first, but I can see it working wonderfully.

Yea, I'd like to see pics too. I have a Tommy **** on it's way, and I can't decide what to do. I think with most good looking *****, if you got even a similar metal, it would throw off the design. I think it looks better to stand on it's own, whether without a washer or just a black washer - whatever material you wish to use.

I've got the Nismo leather **** with the HD rubber toilet finisher. I like the feel of a leather ****, and IMO, the rubber finisher compliments it fine.

Great write-up BTW.

It took you the same amount of time. It' just felt quicker because the nicotine you inhaled created a warp in the time/space continum.

Is it brushed or polished? Hard to tell from the pics, in some it looks polished while in others in looks brushed
