sorry , i have no way to load pics, no scanner or digital camera. but i got a polishing kit at a flea market with like 15 different grits of sandpaper . first i took the struts off and took stripped the paint off with a wire wheel on my grinder , then i worked my way from roughest grit all the way down to the finest , then took metal polish and wiped them down . it prolly took me 2 hours per strut , but you can do it as quick as you want but the more time you spend on them the better they look.

no problem. hey on your webpage i noticed you have a pic that says by lake michigan? was it taken in chicago ? also is that your silver targa top vette as well ? b/c i have a couple questions if it is!

not sure. my mistake, thought you were talking about the hinges. I would find out exactly how the process works. Chrome is a dipping, and electrous-nickle is kinda like powerder coating. You could do either, but you most likly need to find someone to take them apart and rebuild them.
