A'ME grips

snoopy72:
Question please peeps, when buying a pair of A'me grips how do you tell the difference between original 80's and the modern versions ?
Do you think these are original or been matured in the Mexican sunshine ?  ebay  291233878976

Thanks in advance  :daumenhoch:

i may be wrong but i dont remember seeing clear grips in the 80s, i'd guess their modern ones.

snoopy72:
That's what I thought to begin with, I have an early set in grey

I was told it's all in the 'Font'...

Repops have a square font...£10 - £12 (which looks like the font on the back of the bag on the ebay ones for sale...)



Whilst originals have a bubble font...£40 - £50





Hope this helps...

snoopy72:
Thanks guys that explains it, did they make bubble font clear grips though ? I have grey, If they don't I suppose grey is the closest i'm going to get in an A'ME.
