Ohh, cool. I had no idea GG did custom orders directly from them. Might try that someday. I saw that they have them in several colors on Steel Navel up to 1", and they have most of the colors I'd want so that's good.
I just got home and found my BAF order in the mail. Check out my "purple" hangies: [url]http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a139/ThereG0esMyGun/130207_0006_zpsfbe3e4f5.jpg

They are still really pretty and I don't think I'll sell them (can't return them since they're out of the baggies) but I was surprised to say the least! I'm only gonna be able to wear them on special occasions because they're really heavy and hard to get in (they pinch my ears going in and out). But I really liked the way they looked on.
I was really happy with those steel tunnels you recommended. Didn't put them in since they're externally threaded and my lobes were a little sore from trying on the hangies but I definitely think they'll make my lobes look huge like you said. I was really happy with everything else. The "merlot" colorfronts were really pretty but not quite what I expected. They were like white around the edges on the other side and I've never seen colorfronts like that before. It's not visible from the front, just kinda odd. I might take a picture of those when I get a chance. I also got steel tunnels with sapphire gems which I was really happy with.
