Hi REOnauts! I need a gold drip tip to match my new Black/Gold Grand. Any suggestions? Thanks!!

Maybe an anodized drip tip in yellow colour (or gold if they have it)? Anyway, that should give you somewhere to start looking just google for "anodized drip tip" 
I found this one on the first link:

I found this one on the first link:
Drip Tips
You can take a metal drip tip to any plating shop and they will do it for you, search around locally for a plating shop and get some quotes, if you could get a small group of people together and do more than one it would be much more worth it in pricing too. You could also call around to some local car dealers many of them have a local sub contractor they use for plating smaller jobs and you could get a much better price if you can catch there guy doing another job fr the dealer and he could do yours right there n the lot for even cheaper, just a thought.
Here is another link Super T Manufacturing, Innovative manufacturer of electronic cigarette products.
And if you're lucky...you may find one of their no longer made Brass tips. They're awesome...but spendy.

I happen to have 3 of those Brass ones from Dave over @ Super-T from a long long time ago Rhaps and when I shine those bad boys up they look great !
Yep...they're awesome! We've got one here too and it gorgeous. Picked it up in the classies.

I just ordered one from madvapes yesterday. Not sure how the color is gonna look on my 510 compared to the gold color connector, but I'm not to worried about it.
In reference to the brass DTs, I read that they were concerned with the chemical reaction and contaminates from the reaction brass had from some juices. Some juices are "caustic" to certain metals and plastics. The juices we use don't ever cause any issues with brass or aluminum or plastics (MAP tank, for instance), like green gunk or heavy tarnish or plastics clouding, but others do.

Alice, what do you mean by "The juices WE use ..."? Who's WE? Also, what is MAP acronym?
Ted
"WE" is her and her husband "DH" (Dear Husband)
MAP tanks is what she meant by MAP (short for the guy who made them "MostAngeryPirate" COV, Shan's mods sales them..)
Maybe! She'll chime in and set us straight after the fooseball game...
Morn'n all. Well, depends on when you ask me what DH refers to. Occasionally it can be damned husband, too.
As far as "juices we use" the ones we use don't turn any metals any color. For instance, some people were concerned with the bare aluminum on tumbled Reo coming in contact with juice around the catch cup. I've seen an occasional picture of green corrosion on metal parts on some various PVs from contact with juices. Seems to me that when I got my Brass DT from classies there may have been some green on it.
The juices we use, at our house, don't seem to have any reaction with any metal at all. Those juices include FSUSA 100% VG Cuban, FSUSA VG/PG Butterscotch Almond, Hopscotch, American Spirit, Vanilla, Vanilla Tahiti And COV 100% Tobacco, Butterscotch, Caramel Cream. All of these flavors are mild in terms of acidity and other ingredients. Atomic Cyanide and such come to mind when remembering people complaining about carto "plastic" tubes and tanks clouding up quickly. None of the juices we use, at our house, have ever had clouding effects on any "plastics" or apparent reaction with metals.
Another "for instance" of metals contaminating digestibles is the tinning used on the insides of copper meal preparation bowls to keep certain foods from reacting with copper. This was the concern about bare brass coming into contact with certain juices. At least that is what I heard. Metal food storage cans are tinned on the inside to keep foods from coming in contact with can metals. Maybe today they use something other than tin but that's the idea.
