Cool screen name Iceman 8)
I'm in the process of looking for some as well, I'm slowly starting to think I'll have to buy a new primed set for about £340 and then get them painted!

If you want to save money, it is possible to use the black textured arches to start off with, it just takes a lot of preparation.
Took me about 2 days of sanding, filling and priming to get an acceptable surface for painting, but if your time is your own, it's worth a go.

I had mine painted, the only difference is you do not have the end caps but the finish is the same.
