Lee_2f2f Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Hey people, Apparently, you can not get alloys re-chromed in the UK due to the cost or something like that, so I am looking for a different finish.. They are kerbed & the chrome is peeling off one alloy so they need some attention. Can someone be so kind as to, chop the wheels into Anthricite & also to chop them into a normal alloy finish? here are some shots: This is the only decent picture I have of mine: http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a134/2f2fescort2f2f/IMAG0003.jpg but here are some off google: http://image.trucktrend.com/f/8527774/112_0212_9z_Behind_the_Scenes_2003_Truck_Of_The_Year%202003_Ford_F150_Harley_Davidson_Edition%20Front_Grill_View.jpg http://www.usa-cars.net/2003_Ford_F-150_Harley_Davidson_SuperCrew_Front_L_6250.jpg This one seems the best to use: http://interlinkmedia.homenetinc.com/2895/6402/620725(8%29.jpg Really appreciate any help you guys can give me. or if you can find somewhere in the UK that DOES DO CHROME. I will appreciate that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McRic Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Sorry can't photoshop for toffee, I will say however don't go dark it'll make the wheels appear smaller which won't be a good look on a wagon that size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
