do it and dont look back...if hes doin it for free you should do all the other crap on the bike also...steering stem, heel guards, foot pegs, axles bla bla...that would be one hell of a good lookin bike.

Thats awesome if he is chroming them for free

Powdercoat the frame and chrome the suspension.

sand blasting should take that rate out, what kinda sand do you have in there? play sand worked best for me its pretty corse, but than again where I work we blast CAT machines so it was a little over kill for my A-arms.

I used a tumbling shot blast cabinet not very effective ( ls indusries model 11b) but i resorted to paint stripper and a wire wheel. i hope to have at the chrome shop monday
