Any Interest in Replacement RTT Cover Straps?

Rattler

Adventurist
I am gauging interest in making up some sets of replacement straps for a few of the RTT covers. I made a set for my Mombasa a couple years ago and have had a few ask about them. They would be in either a gray or tan unless enough would want some other color. I figured black would be out of the question because of heat and fading. Mine have had only a little fade over the couple of years I have had them on. I would probably just have the bare aluminum buckles.Colors can be done though.
Her are mine.

I just got my CVT Mt. Thielsen RTT, the cover is new, so no issues yet. The tent will probably live over the truck until I gain a place to store it, so it's exposure is full time.

It has two straps with plastic buckles, that like anything of that nature, will suffer from exposure to the sun.

This one did come without CVT labeling, so I'll be picking up a new one at TDS from CVT.

The straps on my old Oasis tent were starting to show some age, not in the plastic buckles like I thought, but in the nylon material itself. We had that tent for 7 years, but it was stored off the truck.
 
My Mombasa came with D-rings on the cover straps. I hate fighting those things. Plus they were black. WTF? I take my time taking down the RTT and it only takes me @ 10 minutes.
 
A couple buddies bugged me to make them a set of the straps like I did for my Mombasa RTT. Had enough extra to make a couple more sets if anyone is interested. They have metal buckles too.

I'd be very interested in black ones if they become available. :)

I was originally going to do them in black but my buddy requested the same camo-like straps I used. Pus I thought the black d-ring straps my RTT came with go too hot some days.

What color buckles? Natural, black or something else?
 
I got a few of these too. I didn't have time to flip the whole RTT open but you get the idea. Hopefully a little more time tomorrow for a better pic.
