these are metal straight wingtips. The buyer of my plane purchased Knots2U HID wingtips for about $1500... He left these wingtips with me... I don't know what they are worth, or if I should put them on ebay?? any suggestions??

They give the plane a sharp look!

Thanks!

I put a set of metal wingtips on my plane. Quite nice, and very sturdy. The only caveat is for those people switching from stock Cessna plastic wingtips - the nav lights are different. Stock Cessna uses truncated wing-tip nav lights, whereas the metal tips use the standard Grimes teardrop-shaped lights.

In my case, I was looking for that - I wanted wingtip strobes and the metal tips meant the Whelen nav/strobe combo would bolt right up.
