How do Cool Hand and Guuun grips compare to VZ?

I installed the blue/black BestWest (aka Guuun) grips on my Tisas Stingray. I had previously ordered from CoolHand and BestWest, thinking I'd install the ones I liked the best. The CoolHand grips were too black, I wanted more blue. The BestWest (which have inscribed Guuun inside the grip) installed easily and look very nice. I ordered an identical but red/black set for my Tisas Devil Ray.

However, the fit of the grip is not perfect. Photo below. I am considering removing the grips and doing a little Dremel or file work to make the fit a bit better. I only need to remove about 1/16 of the grip near the bottom of the mainspring housing. Both sides look about the same.

That looks like an easy fix
Sharp looking grips though
