Holy crap!

Did you send off the chassis to get chromed, or have you discovered a way of doing it at home?

Awesome stuff!

Ooh, shiny!

Did you have it chromed or did you do it yourself? Either way looks great.

Cool. How did the softer plastic take the chrome? Is it fragile?

Not at all...the WORST area was around the rotor assembly...it made that area thicker and harder for the pieces to fit together...it flaked a little but it fit.
