Cubby's chrome on plastic.

[Cubby's RX-1]

Well, its that time of year again when I send a bunch of plastic parts to my plastic chrome guy. I got about 8 pieces for myself that I am sending. And as I have always offered in the past, I can add parts from youse guys (TY family) to my order that I am sending in. I do not make any money doing this so what I have to pay is what you will pay. The more pieces I send in the lower the cost per piece. I will not know the cost yet until I get a tally of how many pieces I am sending out. But after 4 years of doing this, the most a part cost to get chromed was like $75.00. So the price per part should be less than $75.00. I need to have the parts to me no later than Sept. 15th.............................Cubby

Cubby,
Have a ball park idea what it cost for the full a-arm set and Spindle covers? I'll be sending some other stuff to ya, but these are the most expensive I think.

Looks great, what kind of durability do you get out of it? Something you have to do periodically?

It has an automotive type clear sprayed over it and lasts like paint would. It also scratches like paint does. One part I am redoing is my front bumper because I kinda ran into something and scuffed some of the chrome off...........................................Cubby
