I know I've seen an aftermarket red roof handle/lashing bar but I can't find it again. Does anyone know who makes the red versions of these?

Update.. In the last few weeks I've noticed the color of my bars changing, at first a somewhat blue/purple tint and now an almost bronze color. I went back to Amazon and reviewed the product but I didn't see a way to reach out to the seller. They are in China so I'm doubtful I have any recourse. So now I think I'm, going to either have to paint the bars or get them powder coated.
I think we all prefer Gold 🏅

I make some but I use powdercoat, not anodizing. Those amazon/ebay bars are likely using a non UV stable dye. The clear/mill finish anodizing on the factory bars is far less of an issue in UV than Black is. Also made some carbon bars with a UV clear coat.

Resell them on EBay as an exclusive new bronze version.

I ordered the back bars as well. I haven’t received them yet though. Did the seller send you new ones? Do they look better?
Yeah.. another update to the story. The seller reached out to me and said that they had changed the coating to something that was UV resistant and they would send me another set. I haven't gotten them yet but I thought it was good that they responded to the review so quickly.

Thoughts? I'd like to swap for black.
