I'm gonna have some stuff for you soon mate.

Never fall in love with rims or a woman where YOU have to change everything in order for it to work out. Find one that suits you first, fall in love later.

Since i really dont know what is involved in the chrome plating process, this question may be really dumb.

I have wanted to get a plastic dash bezel for a 620, plated. Now i would assume that there is heat involved in the plating process that would melt the bezel. However, i know that some form of chrome plating can be done to plastic. How do they plate the parts for a 1/25 scale model car? those are plastic.

Do you know anything that could be done for this bezel?

You actually could....but man that would cost...

Ah yes I remember you now. Anyways what else can you have chrome plated? Any Aluminum parts?


Grills, wheels, aluminum should not be a problem.


Do you also strip the bumpers or does that have to be done before you get them?


we will strip them. I'm even going to start blasting the back side of the bumpers. it will look cleaner.


What about the inside of the bumper? On one of your pictures i see rust. Do you do a complete chrome or just the outside?


The bumpers are acid dipped....no rust left.

the inside/back side are not prepped like the side you see. But we are starting to blast the inside just so they look cleaner when you receive the finished product.

I should have all the prices for L4 and L6's this week...in both chrome, polished and powdered coated.

The plastic parts are done with electroplating. I know of a place that does it, but I think they only do virgin material. I had a friend back in Texas that had this cool little spray booth (4'x4') and they would spray chrome.

chrome like this, no. Electroplating I could do. I can also take the part you want and paint it with this "chrome paint" from Alsa. VERY good stuff. not the cheap crap in the rattle can. Email me a photo of what part your talking about... info@FGmotorsports.com


Fix are those my old bumpers if they are DAYUM! :lol:


Yes, I had to jump on that deal!!!!! :D

Never looked into that. (The stuff does not hold up to sun light.) I just paint things to make them look anodized.
