    Default Re-chroming

    Hey team, i just emailed this company to see if they will rechrome old toy parts. Will let you know how i go when i get a reply. If this is cheap it will really come in handy for restorations of G1 Tf's.

    I doubt that it would be cheap, but it's worth a try.

    Chroming is always quite pricey... I remember making inquiries back when I was into the custom car scene... the prices were like

    So be prepared for a shock!

    This is the reply.

    Hi SB,

    Yes we can chrome plate such items. If you could send me an e-mail picture
    of the items you want chrome plated with a ruler next to it, I will be able
    to give you a firm quote.
    Best regards,
    Walter.

    Will get onto this and let you guys know how i went.
    SB
