Does anyone have a source for grey EVA grips? I searched the topic and didn't get the results I was looking for. I don't not have the capability to turn my own right now.

I guess I should have been a little more specific. I would like a pre-made split grip with a 3/8 inch inside diameter.

I don't have a lathe to turn my, how hard would it be shape the round EVA with out a lathe?

You can make an impromptu lathe from a drill and a V-stand. Check the photo page under tools and see what turns up. This sort of set-up is usually good enough for occasionally shaping of small EVA pieces.

You do have the capability to make your own. Break out your 3/8 drill, install your 3/8 drill bit, slip on the grip, fire up the drill and shape the EVA to your liking with sandpaper, maybe 5 minutes per piece.
