Post Car Rear Arm Rest
« on: July 23, 2013, 11:01:16 AM »
Hi all,

I recently redid my interior on my post car and at the same time I replaced my arm rest bases all form Legendary well front bases were perfect but the back 5 weeks later and 2 sets later were all messed up it appears when the manufacture trimmed the bases they hacked the upper ledge and then chromed over the defects

Legendary said they went thru their inventory and all were the same if not worse than the 2 sets I got

so anyone recently but them from another source with better luck?

if not who knows of a place that can re-chrome plastic?

thanks,
Jim

Jim,

http://www.chrometechusa.com/automotive-interior-plastics.html  did my arm rest bases and they came out near perfect. Many positive comments on this and other forums.
