I bought nino's silver petrol cap off him a coupe of weeks ago but thought i'd go a bit bling and have it chromed
haven't got it on now but here is a taster. just realised though that there are 3 bolts missing which didn't get chromed so i'll have to get those done as well later.

your original one isn't silver is it? I cant remember.. if it is can I buy it

That looks stunnin!!!!

Is it just a case of spraying it chrome?

Would be good to know how you got that finish.

Thanks

Lidl, no sorry mate it's red

Nope not chrome paint , it's actual chrome using a vacuum metalized process.

One of the guys that I speak to on the Uk business forum is in the business of plating metals so it cost me £45 to get done as he had a batch of stuff to do for another guy so he slipped mine in with that batch.

Mmmmmmmm... Shiny

Very nice. I like it.

hey are you are thinkin of gettin rid of your red cap??

Chrome cap looks the nuts!

Sorry i'll be keeping the red one. I generally keep hold of anything stock just in case i ever sell and need to return it to stock

ok man no prob

Ok here it is on the car now.
I need to redo it as the left hand side isn't sitting flush because I think i've just squashed the rubber seal behind it - so i'll redo it tomorrow when there is more light

Apologies for quality of the photos, light was fading fast

looks good mate suits your car

I like that, goes well with all the other chrome bits. You just need the door handles now!

cool man ill let u know.

waiting to hear back from the guy on NT bout his ones.

PM'd

If you click the link I posted it comes up it has finished I copied and pasted the link at the top of the forsale section telling you to put item number after the link well it has not finished so something must be wrong with the link if your looking for the item go on ebay and type in the number and it should come up

bug*er. ive already put wheels in motion to get mine touched up!
oh well
some ya lose!
just gotta find a high level spoiler going for a tenner
I think I've got more chance of my K&N kit being delivered this week
i.e. an absolute impossibility
Thanks anyway mate!

what rear lights are those mate they look really nice

Euro chrome lexus ones, bought them 2nd hand off someone on here (forgot who it was now).
They are good but they can mist up sometimes due to there being an extra section that isn't used and hasn't got caps on the back so can let condensation in.

bummer. look good though

Ooooh shiny...looks great

now you just need to do the rest of the car
