dern Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Is your car insufficiently bling? Got black wishbones? Wish you'd got chrome ones? I'll do a straight swap (assuming they are the same fitment). Regards, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dern Posted January 5, 2006 Author Share Posted January 5, 2006 Mark,if it snows,can get them stripped and re coated. I read that I could get them stripped somewhere that does the chrome plating - I think blatman mentioned it was a simple reversal of the process. Do you know anywhere local that does this though? I just figured this was an easier path frankly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blakeya Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 i beleive that the chrome can be sand blasted then powder coated as it its. It doesn't have to be stripped back to bare metal!! Someone will probably correct me though:( Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dern Posted January 5, 2006 Author Share Posted January 5, 2006 PM sent, Terry B Got the PM Terry, are they in reasonable nick? I'll take some pictures of mine at the w/e so you can see what mine look like. How do we know if we can swap them straight over? Do I take off my balljoints and give you the bones with my bushes and you do the same... what's the best way forward? If you don't know I'll ask on the techie forum as I don't I'm afraid.

dern Posted January 7, 2006 Author Share Posted January 7, 2006 Slight screw up on my part... been working on the car today and my bones have some slight surface corrosion which isn't an issue but the chrome has flaked away in one place. I've PM'd Terry but I'm afraid it wouldn't be a great swap for anyone so I'll get them blasted and coated. Sorry, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
