How much did it cost to get those chromed if I can ask? How much did your sanding save you in "sweat equity"
Hey David, I'm not sure what I truly saved $$$ wise, I know the chromer/polisher (Frank McCarthy)(hands off in Garland) was impressed with the finish I brought to him. He offered me a job! I told him he was cracked! there was no way I would do this on an everyday basis. I done the finish sanding myself because I know from experience that the finished product is not as good if they do the whole job. I'm not busting them down It's just that I'm a perfectionist and pay attention to detail. they get it to "acceptable to most" and chrome it.
The fork tubes, upper and lower clamps, tube oil caps was $125.00 I have seen $90.00 ea fork tube advertised on various sites so I would say there was "sweat equity" savings. The wheel was $275.00 but I think you can just send it to them as is they will do all for the same price. Not sure I saved anything there but knowing it met my standards when shipped to them was important to me. Thanks for looking T
