chrome parts for 29 mm smoothbores

does anyone know of a source for chrome bowls and tops ?
there was a guy on ebay for a while selling a set of 2 chrome tops for 26mm, which i believe will fit, but i havent seen them lately...a source for chroming small bits maybe?...will chrome stand up to fuel in bowls?...just wondering....thanks....

browns plating in kentucky is da bomb for aluminum stuff.you could get by doing just the top/bottem on each end carb if ya want to save some money.

i checked them out....47 a bowl and 38 a top...definitely would only be the outer carbs....thanks

Lazy sonsabitch... Buff them out!

mine were done when i got my cheap deal 29's on the net...just the two tops on the outside...makes the whole thing flow if you have other chrome.....the inner ones are all shadows unless there is a real inspection...i'd do it ....it flows and keeps the chrome front and rear stuff tied in one line...imo

X2......... All it will cost is time to polish them and they will not flake and peel.

Your right there gone.I seen them yeasterday for 26 bucks.As soon as I saw them I drop you line to let you know.Sorry.:ohmy:

X3....Just polished mine last night and they look just about like chrome. I bought a 6" buffer at Harbor Freight a few days ago, it made quick work of polishing them. It's on sale for $39.00 right now. Not the best quality buffer but works great for what I need.
P.S. just hang on tight
