I sent some of my resin parts out to have chromed. Southy was the one who suggested it. Great idea. They came out nice. I'll most likely offer chroming as an option for my parts. So if you have an interest, and think this is something you would consider post your thoughts or ideas for other chrome parts. I'm sure southy will stock chrome parts as well, but there would need to be an interest before he stocks them. The first set of wheels are the ones I made using the 5 spoke centers with deeper outers. The last pic is of the outer rims that use the resin centers. Eventually these will be available in aluminum.

If anyone is interested in getting some of Corrupted parts and would like them chromed, please contact me and the more parts i can get the lower the price should be but we have to keep Corrupted in mind because he has to make the parts first. Cheers

For the prices on chroming it will vary. Depending on quantity and size of the part. I'll guess from $4 - $6 per part depending on the size. That is also figuring in the shipping from me to them and back. The more parts I send the better that will be for price.
I've never tried the powder in my resin. I've seen it and always wished they had silver dye. So the powder won't rub off?
