Here's an "ol' skool" item you MAY want to try, instead of dropping $100+ on aftermarket pegs.

"Cheap custom", just fill the recess with paint of any color you like. When dry, scrape the top like you'd scrape a scratch off ticket, and it will remove ANY over paint with ease.

How long will it last until dirty? Probably depends on you.

Well, I can top THAT! Ya see, I was thinkin' of doin' this exact same thing TOO!


(...but you'll have to send me the paint...and for no charge)



Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Yea, THAT'S pretty cheap all right!

But you got to admit, I'm a pretty frugal act to follow.

(and I wouldn't have done it either, IF I didn't ALREADY have the paint! )

Yeah erle! I'm kinda wonderin' what that whole "magnolia" thing means over there, too!

(...but hey, ain't it good to know that AT LEAST the Brits don't spell that, "magnoulia"?!!!)

Internet
Magnolia as a named color historically enjoyed sporadic support in web browsers. In Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 it may sometimes be rendered a pale magenta. In Mozilla Firefox 2.0 it may sometimes appear grayish pink.
Real Estate
In the UK, Magnolia paint is a neutral to warm white (as the petals in the picture of the plant), noted as being the 'standard' color of household paint, other than white. However, the color called "Magnolia" in UK paint is closer to peach rather than the rose-lavender white of the web color. It is used in property selling as a neutral, inoffensive color thought to maximize the saleability of a property. As such, it is available in bulk quantities at discounted rates and is often associated with new-build homes and rented accommodation.

Magnolia? She's the best. Did Wiki tell you that?

"Magnolia you sweet thing
You're driving me mad
I got to get back to you babe
You're the best I ever had"
