The biggest disappointment with these balcony rails isn't that they're not custom, but they're fundamentally different in overall design.

The renderings show the rails extending on the outside of the slab edges, concealing all the slab edges. Now you have all these exposed pieces of concrete.

The renderings also show a coating or covering on the undersides, and I'm not seeing any coatings, just exposed concrete.

The whole thing produces a very jarring result.

Edit:

Just look at this balcony travesty a couple of days ago:
