I've seen those too. Unfortunately besides being very expensive, imo, they dont look much like the original in that the color looks washed out. The originals seem much darker.

Last night I got out bid on Ebay on a set that ended up going for $152. One had a chip out of it but the other looked mint.

B/E&A reproduces lenses for the 72s. I've seen them in person, and they're amazing.

Maybe the pictures i'm looking at are just bad or maybe the '72's are done better.

Look closer, guys. It's the same picture on both Herb's and B/E & A's web site.

I bought a set from B/E&A, they are perfect. They are trimmed in black for roadrunner applications, but you can paint them silver for Satellite.
