The whole thing will not polish out now :-[ i can say that for sure - it's more on there now so it's going to need a re-chrome for sure - i would say that he gets it done and carry's it on forward - as if it just gets a powder, it will be the "what would it of been like" frame
it's such a shame the money that was spent and lost, to having the wrong people touch it ::)
keep going Al and battle the Demons as you will win >:D
check yer soon mate - B ;)

Was the damage down to the chromers or the courier?

Fook :'( gutted for you Al, what a nightmare this has been.... :buck2:

Al, this will be such a stunning bike once it's done, your patience and perseverence will prove that.
You could have quite easily said it's good but not perfect and started slapping parts on to get it built, but you didn't, you've stuck to your guns, waited and thrown more cash at it, and that commitment will pay off with the end result.
I would've bailed the project a long time ago, I have no will power.
Can't wait to see this completed though. :coolsmiley:
BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN:
I can not say and i'm not putting anyone to blame - full stop
Al just wanted me to have a look at the frame and have a second opion - All i will say is it can not be saved and will have to be rechromed, as no ammount of polishing will save what i saw !
B
maybe we should start a fund to help out one of out fallen :'(
Jamroll:
Frame is battered, and nowt i can do about that :-[
Anyhoo Its been boxed and has just been collected again to go back to Allen chrome :uglystupid2:
Another £150 down the shitter :2funny:
I was very very close to just gettin the whole fooking thing powded and be done with it, but the amount of money and time not to mention tears that has been put into this i couldn't do it....this is the last time though I've spoken to Allen Chroming again and they reckon the frame will be good for another chrome but thats it....on final roll of the dice, he's gonna try and do a quick turnaround on the frame so hopefully I'll have for MK11....we'll see ::)
Bendy Dude, thanks for comin over to see me and puttin my right...I think i still had some grand illusions of being able to polish it ;D
