Seeker has rods in a red metallic, brownish red, blue, and a limited edition purple. all you gotta do is whip out a mudhole catalog. they have lots of colored blanks too. or you could get one professionally painted if desired.

Also, Lamiglas will paint blanks for you for a small fee. They have some solid and translucent colors. As I recall, there is no charge for the painting if you buy 10 blanks.

Lorenzo,

As far as getting blanks painted check out your local auto body shop. They usually have paint left over when they do custom jobs and even standard jobs. They will usually charge about 20-30 dollars per blank. Just an FYI.

Tight lines,

Did not know they would do 10 for free. I'll check into that.

Thanks
