thats a really nice looking frameset!!

if you really really have to spray over the chrome, just rough it up first with, say, 400 grit to take the shine off.

dont strip the chrome off though

it looks nice in chrome though mate

couldnt you get a mk2 burner f+f and team colour that one, to preserve the shiny tange goodness of the above?

That chrome does look good, seems a waste to cover it up.

Why not do the blue/red/yellow of the team colours, but leave the rest chrome, instead of white ?

Funny you should say that Gmac because i  was thinking about that when i was taking the taty stickers of, think that would look cool. So you would still have the front blue then? Or maybe just all chrome but with the team stickers on?????. Ohh fooking hell this bmx obssesion will never end thats another build you've got me into LOL

Don't paint the front end... Have it superchromed in clear blue powdercoat... [like the gold on the super tuffs].

This is something I have always planned on doing... But Raleigh have still got my Aero Pro frame...  ;)

Are you mad? That frame looks brand new...  you can always re paint a frame, but you can never get a rechromed frame to look stock...

Why not clear candy blue the front end and slap on the team decals, like the others have said...  it'll look the dogs :daumenhoch:

My sentiments exactly... a few of the Burner lads have talked about doing this... clear blue over the chrome... will look outstanding..
