Guess that explains why they were $0.99 on ebay with no reserve


If it just took some polishing work I was gonna try it and maybe resell them.

Actually, you could strip them, polish and clearcoat. Personally I like that better than chrome.

Yeah that's a much less expensive alternative. Cool thing about polished, it's very easy to fix if you get curb rash.
