obviously the chrome one will come out better.you'd have to be an idiot not to already know that. but it will at least lets him see if its £180 worth better than the chrome powder and wasting a lot of money on something that aint got a lot in it.

Spot on, I know the chrome underneath is gonna look better, I just wanna see if its £160 + better  8)

These are some pics of an unidentified freestyler that russ j on bw once built for riding a round on. He had the candy red done by FHM reader. The pics really don't do the finish justice tbh. The chrome was in great condition, that deep sort of metalic effect just looked so lush. You just can't quite get it looking that good on the silver paint base. If you want that lush red your only going to get it over chrome. Even if you had to wait to save up the extra for the chrome then powder the finish is worth it imo. If you keep the bike forever and want to change it's shoes and socks one day at least you have a minty protected chrome frame underneath.

I have to ask, how old was that girl when the pic was taken.
She looks like something from Readers Wives from a mucky '80's mag.

That pic is just wrong.  An Allison Moyet lookalike with a fat ass who rides a Puch and wears Burner attire.  Not sure what's more shameful.  :-[

Seen loads of powdered ones , a chrome one with nice carefully sourced parts would look super cool IMO and make a refreshing change  ;)

OK so this morning the 2 seatposts (again thx for supplying ED209) came back from SBD  :daumenhoch:
I've think I've made my choice as to what route i'm gonna take with this but I'm gonna see wot you lot think  :daumenhoch:
One is powder over chrome the other is Dans silver chrome powder as a base and the colour over the top.
Which one do you prefer left or right???



Cheers
