Default New chrome and pics

Just got all the chrome back from Bumper to Bumper Inc. $350.00 for all except the nose which was brand new when I got the car. Enjoy the pics.

looks good, I shined mine up yesterday by hand and wished I would have recromed them before I quit my last job where we had a plating machine.

Nope still a 10 footer. But I waxed the hell out of the paint and even with 76 nicks it still looks good until you get close. Since it's almost summer i'll hold off on paint till winter when I won't miss driving her.

thanks for the compliments guys.

:cheers:
