Bansh-eman Posted June 1, 2007 Report Posted June 1, 2007 (edited) its pretty hard to see the gold in the picts but i circled them in red. also notice the pits and scratches from the chromer. im hoping that gary had it drop shipped from the chromer and didnt look at this peice and say it was up to par when i pay top notch prices and then wait 3 months for something that was supposed to be ready in 2 to 3 weeks i expect top notch quality Edited June 1, 2007 by Bansh-eman Quote
EastCoast Banshee Posted June 1, 2007 Report Posted June 1, 2007 Looks like shit. Id be asking for a sizable refund or send it back to get re-chromed at his expense. Quote

Maybe you can hire a mexican to polish it for you. :biggrin: Quote

ClimbAnyHill Posted June 1, 2007 Report Posted June 1, 2007 That looks pretty crapy. It blows you waited that long for that type of finish. He's a man of good work & good business so it doesn't make sense. I'm sure he'll make it right!! Haven't seen him on here in a long time, send him a PM :shrug: Quote
RNBRAD Posted June 1, 2007 Report Posted June 1, 2007 Yea those area's like that are frequently skipped by chromers. Reason is they like to walk up to the big buffing wheel and let it do all the work except it won't reach those area's well. Those small area's are where all the time in preperation is at. That's really what you call cutting a corner. Quote

locogato11283 Posted June 1, 2007 Report Posted June 1, 2007 i am sure those were drop shipped ffrom the chromer. gary wouldnt let those arms go out like that. i have his arms in black and they look awesome. my bro has some in chrome and they look nice as well. my brother bent an a arm and gary had one back out to him in a week..garys service is excellent and im sure he didnt know those looked like that..

vtecjun Posted June 2, 2007 Report Posted June 2, 2007 It looks to me like whoever did the chroming didnt take the time to make sure that those areas were clean and prepped before they got chromed. I have a buddy who prepped all his own stuff and you can really see the spots that werent smooth turned out just like that. Hope you get the problem taken care of. Quote
