Hi,

Not sure if this is the place to post this....but i'm looking to trade my NEW DW black hardware off a four piece shell pack for the same in chrome. Sizes: 22" kick , toms, 10", 12", 16" mounted. including STM mounts.

You'll most likely have to buy new chrome lugs, and sell the black ones on eBay or CL.

You could get a pretty good amount for the lugs on eBay, and recoup most of your money for the new lugs/stm's.

Post this in the Classifieds in General Discussions, you might get a bite on a trade, or selling them.

DW will do a trade (last time I heard). However, due to the "piracy" of intellectual property, DW has a policy of not selling the hardware. You will have to disasemble all of the components and send them to DW and, in turn, they will send you the corresponding chrome parts.

The reason they do this is that they have a design patent on their lugs. Also, due to DW's popularity, there have been some knock-offs and conterfeits touting themselves as DW with lugs obtained. Since this lug is "trademark" to the look of DW drums, DW felt that this was prudent to protect both the customer from buying counterfeit DW drums and paying good money for those inferior drums and to protect the quality of the DW brand.

Let me know if you have any other questions or where to get started.
