I’m an Auburn man and will be in the market for several Chief scales as soon as I see someone making them! Even the REX orange is too close to UT orange for me. I may swap one with the CS orange scales until customs start showing up.

Here's my RIT dyed burnt orange Chief next to the St. Nicks Exclusive. RIT dye-more 'Racing Red' 1 part dye 7 parts water. Dunked for about 30-45 seconds in simmering pot.

Part of the reason you don't see aftermarket scales for the Chief is it's linerless. That means they have to imbed threads for the clip screws in what ever scales they make. This is hard to do. There is also the D-shaped pivot hole to contend with which is it's own set of problems.
