I gave away a ton of the grip decals already. Go to a skateshop and buy some grip tape. You will get a ton of grips out of it.

Any grip tape is fine, as long as it says "3M" on the back.
 Holds up a heck of a lot better than some I've used.

I recently got rubber slam pads with 3m tape and the tape literally fell off the slam pads. 3m let me down on that.

Not sure if it's production legal but Springer does his X-grip (I have it on my 45 tac for limited and it's way better than grip tape) it's epoxy and aluminum powder, it's permanent and tough! And Awesome!!

I use stair tread tape that I bought at Lowes on all my XDs.

Another do it yourself option is to go to The Home Depot and buy tread tape. It comes in a roll about 12 feet long by 2 inches wide, i promise you will never use it all on guns
 I had some of it on an XD and it never wore down. Or as mentioned, skateboard deck tape.
