Good luck with the build mate i would clean the chrome and build it as you had it bitd  :daumenhoch: i cleaned my firebird with coke and foil and was more than happy with the result :)

mattbloke:
after assessing the state of the chrome, i decided to go for the good ol' coke and foil job. the chrome has too many fine marks, nicks to go OTT on it.
rear are some before and after shots :)






also just had my rider condition silver 7X's turn up cheers RADRAT :)

Looks well mate, it's amazing how you can remember the parts you had on your bike from yonks ago. I'd love to replicate my 1st BMX, but it's a Piranha, so maybe not. :daumenhoch:
