Title: Repairing “chrome” plastic parts
Post by: Steve McDonald Formally known as Mcdonas on March 19, 2018, 03:21:34 PM
Has anyone ever used one of the vendors that repair and rechrome plastic parts?
I have about 11 magnum 500 center caps that I would like to get redone. All are scratched, chrome is worn off and most are missing a pin or two that holds then to the wheel
Any suggestions?  I know I can get repos but I am slowly sliding down that rabbit hole of NOS stupidity

I've used Instrument Specialties in the past with great success. They may not be the fastest shop, but their completed work was excellent.
