Just found out that Carbon Creations is in fact making these grips for Kimber.

Carbon Creations does good work! That means they will be quality grips.

I tried and they wanted me to send my SIS grips back so they could replace. They would not allow me to purchase an "extra" set.
Now how bad do you want them?

I have wanted the Compact SIS grips since the SIS came out.

I have called Kimber multiple times asking for them.

Kimber sales guy said he owed me a favor since he messed up on some o-rings. He asked how he could make me happy. I told him I wanted SIS grips and I will pay. He said no can do, so I got a cool Kimber T-Shirt!

You forget who you're talking about. He, no doubt, has already acquired his very own kit.

I like it a lot, but I am not sure if I like it enough to spend approximately $80.00. It looks clean on that Kimber though!

I love them! I shot a full mag threw it today.

Thanks to another member here, he installed them for me and handed me the CDP with the new grips while I was on the range.

Grips look AMAZING!
Feel great in my hand
very smooth when carrying!

I am very very pleased with them!

Looks great, Mike!
