I have a pair of the sleaziest, cheapest, oiliest pair of black plastic grips you can possibly imagine--they are so bad that they don't even really qualify as "fake". They do, however, have the screw holes in the back of the grips (both at the bottom) although these holes are not really threaded. It is also worthy of note that they have the fine scribe line inside the outline which separates the diamonds from the outline.
Your concern about fakers getting smarter is well founded.
