Re: chrome fill in
She has a bar with a cut in the middle. She wants to know how to cover up that cut so it looks like one piece again.
I have no clue what you could use as filler, but wouldn't look out of place on chrome. Sorry.

Re: chrome fill in
How deep is the cut? Is it just through the metal part?
You could always get a new chrome bar.
Whats this for anyway?

Re: chrome fill in
Kristen,
It's an old school trick called brazing, or lead brazing. There are not a lot of people that know how to do it anymore. Basically what it is you have a peace of lead that you melt and form to your desired specs. A lot of old school hot rod shops might still do it. You will have to have it re-chromed but if done right you will never be able to tell it was done. They use it a lot for old grills for roadsters and mirror brackets and things of that nature. Not sure if that is what you’re after but maybe do a search on the net you might be lucky and find someone out there that still does it.2002 Firebird<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2106142/1\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2106142/1</a>Comment

Re: chrome fill in
Simple welding, and grinding would work here, depending on the metal and so-forth, but would still need to get re-chromedRebuilding the engine... Building a custom front end... T-top conversion... Custom rear hatch..

Re: chrome fill in
my dad got a dodge ram, and it has those side bars on the bed of the truck. he had to put a tool box in, so he had to take those pipes off. so he still wanted them so he could tie stuff down. so he just mad them shorter.WAWA-A-HOLIC

Building the Tom Henry RS
Part 4: Suspension Mods, Tires, Wheels, Headers and other Cool Stuff.

Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...02-07-2020, 11:30 PM
