Author | Topic: Chrome Dash Trim? |

I am interested in chroming some of the plastic dash trim to match the chrome shifter bezel. I am having the rear splash guards and rear fender protectors chromed at Custom Coatings, but they do not do the dash pieces. Does anybody know a source for chroming the plastic dash pieces? Thanks Chuck - "BadKat" ------------------ |

Has anyone had the bezel around the radio chromed? That would be a cool mod with the shift bezel. Chuck any luck? BTW how is the bezel removed? ------------------ |

I know of a dash kit that has about 30 pieces for the Prowler and looks great. It is about $600. It covers the part you are talking about and many more! I'll get it after I get back for the summer. If you would like the guy's # e-mail me. ------------------ 2000 Prowler Woodward Edition (red/black-USA) |

You can't chrome plastic pieces.... There's some other finishes you could do, but chrome isn't one of them. Chrome is a metal plating that goes over nickle plating, and that needs metal to bond to. -Ben ------------------ |

Ben, you can have plastic chromed. Look at your caps on you wheels. PLASTIC!! ------------------ |

I called every chromer/plater I could find in Houston, none of them chrome plastic. It can be done but the process is either to costly or to much trouble. If anyone knows who does plastic chroming let me know. I e mailed the shimmer man but no response. I would like to chrome my bumper and my radio bezel. Thanks |

I don't think the bumpers could be chromed, BUT the bezel could be. All the interior trim for years has been chrome plated plastic. I too would like to chrome a radio bezel. to go with my chrome shifter bezel, shifter knob, radio shimmer & chrome head rest covers. and by the way my grill & outside door handles are triple chrome plated plastic. Check out Custom Coating in Tallahassee, FL ------------------ |

Here is the info on Chroming parts, I called them today, 8 weeks for a grill, I am going to get a new one and send it to them (unless I get the one that I have heard exists), so I can keep my blue one and have the chrome onne. I am also going to order a bezel from any vendor I can find and send that for chroming. Chrome Plastic parts of your Prowler with high quality results, using state of the art technology!! |
