Somebody is always going to get rich . I forgot to add that was all the body parts with ghost flames .

That`s not really to bad since a wheel costs $250.

They really have a unique product, 15 yrs of R&D to get it this far & they've been selling systems across the globe. They have an electroplate type "Gold Machine" that allows you to do emblems & trim in gold without removiung from vehicle or harming any surrounding paint. I took a quarter and gold plated 1/2 of it & tried to scratch it off with another quarter, no luck.. incredible chemical bonding process. I'd buy their chemicals, but think I can build their roll around booths cheaper than 5 to 7k! :dry: Pretty sure my buds gonna buy a system so Max will get treated right.

Probably around $200+ but I wouldn't do it if I was you. It's not that hard to polish the scoops yourself. You have raw aluminum to work with once the clear is off, and it will polish to a chrome like shine with some simichrome and elbow grease ;)

I agree with you on it can be polished, I had my 97 intakes polished, problem is after u touch them with ur hands the shine starts to go away and u have to keep polishing again.

I prefer windex and a cloth and done. I had alot of the parts on the 97 hand polished and it took alot of work to keep that look up after about a year.

I wish some one around here had a chrome setup, or a good painter for that matter.

I had polised billet wheels on a custom V Twin i did a frame up on they were called "hammer" Randy you ought to like that
but as you said a mother to keep shining , I employed "Jimmy" the resident Stumblebum to keep the semichrome flowing
and give him the all important beer money worked out great till he made a decision to clean them with 409 , Took a couple weeks to dremel buff the stains off , I found him sleeping one off out behind my store and sprikled a bottle of mennen skin bracer on him to make him smell better and took a sharpie and put dots on the lens of his sunglasses figured we was even but he didn't even know the difference lol

Tyler did a beautiful Back Chrome on his Aluminum wheels and major Aluminum parts and I know his job was quality maybe he will chime in with his source I am sure they do the conventional chrome as well not many places left do it with all the EPA on the chemicals used
it seems either really good work or no so good work , Wonder how a good clear coat would do over polished scoops ?

Get the scoops clear powder coated or have someone spray a good eurethane clear on them.
