If I was to get another pair of Grados and mod them, could you help me with supplying me with these metal cups?

I just need to get rid of these horrible watermarks on them :[ Grawk said to get some non abrasive liquid metal polish to get rid of them, so I'm considering that option.

Not content,more amazed ,Didn't take them off till 4 am this morning,mind you spotify don't help much.All i need now is another pair for the 325i's ,unless it is true that they use the same driver for all models, and just alter the cups.The only way to find out is to woody the 325's and see if there is a difference.

I modified a headband from cheap headset....
make larger hole untill Grado clamp-shaft can make through
then, just fill plastic terminal with hard-foam... act as brake-pad...
so, clamp-shaft won't be slide too easily.....

Now.. Grado feel so comfortable and stable...
