Last week I bought Xtreme grips for my XD .40 and I put them on today. If anyone is on the fence about getting these, they appear to be well worth the $19. Shipping was extremely fast and the quality is very good. I cleaned the gun and had them installed within 15 minutes. I'm going to the range Saturday to try it out but just from holding it and dry firing I am very impressed with the feel. My only concerns are it appears that the backstrap piece is not designed for the small backstrap because it wants to overlap the other pieces on the sides of the handle. I made it work but it doesn't look perfect. Also the back piece isn't contoured with the grooves of the backstrap, it has round holes in it instead which I found kind of strange but I'm sure they are like that for a reason. Also the slide pieces hung over the top of the slide a millimeter or so, which made it start folding down away from the slide as I used the slide a couple times. I took scissors and cut it down a bit. I'm hoping that will stop the peeling away.
Anyway, for the most part, the Xtreme grip is worth buying, hopefully it'll last a good long time.
