Guys,
I'm looking for a pair of Chrome Haro Anlun Freestyle Bars for my 85 Freestyler! As you've seen me moan, can't get them anywhere!!!
Come across a red pair, how easy would they strip and polish? Guessing they'll never be as shiny as a chrome pair???
Thoughts please!!
Thanks

Strip them & get them chromed , Sorted :daumenhoch:
-
How much is it to get a pair of bars chromed though?
Sounds expensive, the nos red bars aren't cheap so could work out to cost more than my hopeful budget!!!
-
These arent the ones from Coopers are they? i was going to do the same thing but get them done in green but changed my mind.
-
By the way, Chip from C4Labs in the US has some but he isnt that cheap.. I think he wanted $100 shipped to the UK when I enquired

hampshire electroplaters in southampton are doing a pair for me ,they quoted £30 :daumenhoch:
-
mine were £45
great job but my mongoose bars ended up costing £90 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! whats that they say about a fool and his money
-
Assuming a strip & polish can be done (athough I don't think it can).........Whats the process (with what polishes and tools)?????
-
stace under the paint it will be bare metal which you could polish but will rust as soon as they get damp,the only way is to get them chromed :'(
-
Thats cool, I guess I'll be doing that then!!!
-
i see you are on the south coast give www.hepcoltd.co.uk a go i had some car parts done there excellent job just waiting for bars etc to come back :(
-
I've checked out their site. About 25 minutes from me so I'll be phoning them on Monday!!
Thanks
Should be all done for Southsea!! :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

Took the bars into Hampshire Electroplaters today.
£30 for the handlebars. The Gent told me £30 was minimum order price so I whipped out a pair of Mini Burner bars and said how much for the two?? £40..You can't beat that!!
The guys seem really friendly and I mentioned F&F's,which he said was happy to do. Once I've got them back and I'm happy I'll find out how much for F&F and let you all know.
