| Way to go, great job. Be good to know how much the chroming costs, out of interest | |

| I was going to just paint it black with Hammerite but as it's attatching on the outside of the sissy bar I thought it would look a bit shit. | |

Wilkinson's chrome spray is pretty authentic - you could try it on a bit of spare metal first - just a thought. | |

| I think that chrome paint can look quite good & have used it myself but I wonder how good it would look when it's attached to real chrome? Black might better | |

| 220 pounds to chrome that little thing, those chromer folks must be nuts! It might look nice powder coated. a lot cheaper too. | |
