Pac Bay snake guides

Just wondering what you guys think of Pac Bay snake guides... Picked up a set in tigray and black - both light wire. For the most part I'm pretty pleased with them so far. Only exception is one of the tigray guides has an area where the chrome base is showing through the tigray finish, almost like it's chipped off.

I'm curious how the tigray and black finishes will hold up over time.

I have used the dark Ti colored guide when they made them wth no issues, TiGold on my freshwater Perigee rods, the only black I have used was Hopkins & Holloway guides they worked fine, I have been a fan of Snake Brand guides for some time, once in a blue moon REC.
