Goldie 2 Posted April 30, 2007 Haviing just acquired a Schrick id like to have it polished before i put it on the car. The guy i was planning on asking has disappeared so the question is: Does anyone know where i can get this done in the Porstmouth area? How much should i expect to part with? How long does it normally take? Ta very much... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goldie 2 Posted May 1, 2007 Cheers DaveVR6, i gave the guy a ring yesterday.. He sounded very clued up and expected hed need the Manifold for 2 weeks and said it would cost 110 quidish... Anyone reckon thats good or bad???? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dukest 0 Posted May 1, 2007 I had a guy in aylesbury quote about £45 for a standard manifold but that is probably a bit easier because there's less contours to the surfaces. Can't see it would take that long, he's probably just managing his workload. Try PureKlas for a benchmark too, they're everyones choice of wheel polisher by all accounts and do engine bits too. :thumbleft: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

double-6s 0 Posted May 8, 2007 I think Nickel plating's what they sometimes use on American Chopper isn't it? Like chrome but with a slight colour to it? If it's what I'm thinking of it looks bloomin excellent. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
