Guys need a lil help has anyone done thier own smoking on chrome parts for a Diamondback Formula 1?
Just picked up a nice lil project but all the parts that are coloured blue over chrome need a refurb so hows it done? Also the smoked 890 brake and tech 3 lever was missing so i was hoping to smoke a silver one, any help with this to would be great  :daumenhoch:

I've read Diamond back  didn't produce the Formula one in Smoked chrome , only standard chrome

Koisumi only made their Prototype for the   Formula 1  in smoked turbo finish apparently

The finish on yours won't be a factory original  , so no worries about having to reproduce it  :)

before - all original  8)


After - changed the post because, the chrome was flaking.


the original post only has one flute.
