Astor Metal Finishes Chrome Plating in Sydney
#1
Well Guys this is who we are using in the SSGM for all our plating
Its hard to find a good chrome plater that will chrome alloy
If you clean up your parts before hand, back to 320 wet & dry you will save
Its best to clean up your parts first and take them in for a free quote
It takes about 2 weeks for turnaround but has done some within a week
If you ask for Richard and say your from the Australian Hayabusa club it can only help

+1 they did a great job on my bits and if you prep the parts first the price is very reasonable.

Simmo cant wait to see the first real copper busa Bruce

Do you think it's worth chroming the replacement headers I have? I know you don't see them much, but chrome "glimpses" would be a nice touch.

Would it affect performance at all?

you could get them ceramic coated for heat insulation and longer life, but you can,t see them.

Swingarm
brake and clutch covers
cable clips and brackets
bar ends
exhaust mounting hole cover plugs
bolts and nuts
swingarm lifting spools
NOS bottle and brackets
NOS and fuel pressure guage mounting bracket.
And some other stuff.

Some more stuff going in for chrome plating as well.

Most of the above has already been chrome plated but I need a bit of colour for contrast.

Knowing how lazy I am it may take a while to get it all ready. Bruce

Bruce,
We'll have to do a drags run up there just to look at her when you're finished mate, mind you, that could be some time.

I'll have to get off my arse and get my spare one up there.

Cheers
