Roo, was a bit dubious of whether they would look OK but they are MUCH better than anticipated - they look good...
Oddjob:
The plus point is that unlike chrome they won't go rusty, they are virtually impervious to salt water as well.
I'll have a small go at some of my Cermakrome parts Roo and see if I can really get them to shine. If I can I'll post a pic and instructions on how to do it.

That would be ace Ken, I phoned Nick to sy thanks for a good job and asked hiom what I could get a bit of a twinkle on them with and he suggested really fine wire wool and autosol...............who am I to argue?
I'll have a fiddle maybe later bjut just got home anf need a coffee marathon, knackered!
Bit of 'a sit' and some crap You Tube and I should be right. That is if I dont nod off which is a distinct possibility. I was waiting to load a dumper today with Type 1 and as he took off loaded to go dump I just had an 'elongated blink' and before I knew it he was banging on the door waking me up, ;D and he'd been and made a brew ;D ;D
Think I need an early night tonight..............Netting 40lb carp tomorrow and really looking for ward to it so need my 'A game' on tomorrow.
Might go for a bit of shed, might not dunno, we'll see.. :D

I was only going to fit these as I just love the shape and design and really think they make the bike. secretly want a Yoshi but dont like the headers really. Its only a bread fetcher anyway, its not like its a racer of any description. Just for bimbling aboout on but I love the way they've turned out. I'm glad I persued what I wanted even if it was the more difficult option.
