I've emailed them twice before and never received a reply. So much for customer service

I have a set of V&H Ovals on an RKC.
I had my right baffle begin to rattle a couple of months ago.
I called customer service & was told that they had realized there was a design flaw but the baffles had been redesigned now.
She then gave me a price on two, ordered.
I sort of felt like since they had sold a flawed product, they should have made it right for free.
Anyway, I lucked, & I do mean LUCKED into a pair of the exact ones I needed from another HD Forums member.

I'm about 12 miles from V & H. For a small fee I'll pay them a "visit".

If his name is Guido, might be worth the visit.

I went to their corporate HQ as I live in the area when I was in need of the bracket for a set of pipes I bought used and some bolts. They gave me the whole thing for free. I always prefer to call than email as email is unreliable at best especially for customer service.

I too called them for heat shields and was told they really don't stock them. They gave me a price (about $100 each) and was told it could take a few weeks until they actually made them. Well it did, 3 weeks for 2 heat shields!
