        Probably cheaper to buy used ones from someone like
British Auto Works. Ask them for a quote. They respond to emails rather
well.

Subject: De-chroming question


Anyone had any experience with de-chroming parts?  My DPO had  the great
idea 
of chrome plating misc. hardware like the boot and bonnet  hinges, stay
rods, 
radiator braces, etc.  Would be OK (if a little strange)  except he 
apparently didn't have the hardware chromed right and now it's flaking
off.  I've been 
told I can have the parts de-chromed at a location that  does chrome
plating 
but don't know what to expect in terms of cost.   Would assume it's less
than 
having the parts chrome plated?  Also, any  particular suggestions for 
treating the metal once de-chroming is  complete?  
 
I'm getting close to having the 6 back on the road -- fewer and fewer
parts 
bins in the garage.  Now would be the time to do any dechroming that
should 
be done.
