Chrome rims?

Post by piesang »

Is dit die moeite werd om die ou "rocksta" rims (as ek die regte naam het) te laat chrome en die driehoeke weer swart te maak. Indien wel waar laat ek dit doen en wat gaan dit +/- kos?

Dit is beslis die moeite werd, waar jy dit kan doen is n ander storie, ek wil die normale steelies two tone swart en chrome doen en dis n mission en n half, ek sal die rims moet laat split vir dit.. maar die eind resultaat is flippen stunning!

Ek het nou net op een van die ander manne se pos gelees hy praat van rostyles en dit gaan google en wou gou dit hier kom regstel, maar julle was te gou vir my :oops: :oops: :oops:

Ja ek dink ook dit lyk uitstekend, het so paar destyd op my Datsun gehad, maar was net silwer en swart. Ek sal graag die chrome en swart wil hê vir die buggy.

Maar is daar iemand in die Kaap wat die wiele vir my sal kan chrome en dan 'n goeie job doen?

Ek het H & R Chrome Plating Parow gebel en die dame het my mee gedeel dat dit nie 'n goeie ding is om rims te laat chrome nie, maar sy het nie gesê hoekom nie. :cry: :cry:

So ek sal dit maar spry.

Ok, ek hoor jou - maar weet ENIGIEMAND hoekom dit nie 'n goeie idee sal wees om wiele te laat kroom nie?

Because it is labour intesive and they probably do a crappy job so they decided to rather discourage individuals (who will probably end up unhappy with it) than up their standards....

Soek vir een van Jurgen Grand Slam se poste. Kliek op die naam JGS en n nuwe blad sal oop maak. Op die linker kant van die blaai sal jy sien - "Sene a private message"

Kliek daar op, skryf in die titel van jou storie, dan skryf jou storie in die ondergelede blok, en dan druk "send"

As hulle vir jou antwoord sal sal jy sien n klien vensterkie sal op kom vanneer jy weer die hoof blad oop maak.

Hoop dit help.
