Hey all. I was curious as to what kind of parts you fellow chevygmc owners would like to see chromed. I have seen some bizarre things on ebay, some sell, some don't, but I was just wondering what various opinions there are out there. thanks for your time.

I think any of the stuff you usually see in the catalogs, but good quality. I try to avoid buyiing chrome stuff because you are paying twice as much for something that is just cheap junk made in taiwan. Not that all chrome stuff is like that, but a lot of the stuff I see is.

I like the chromed glovebox doors. I saw chromed door panels, they looked good. chromed suspension parts look cool too!

I like the chrome glove box doors too.

I'd like to see a chrome radio delete plate so I can do the same thing to it.

I want chromed hood hinges & springs, Hood latch, & the two upper brackets that hold the radiator in place, all of the p/steering,alt,and A/C brackets.
I have some of the brackets,along with a chromed alternator,pulleys,and cam cover.

ANDY,

I like what you did to the "glovebox door" I'm doing mine the same way except with "wrinkle black paint".

Chrome the passengers floor~~~~. Help prevent rust as we would be polishing it mirror like on a regular basis. Maybe the headliner too!! With my bald spot, I could probably create electricity.

Thanks for the responses guys. Huck, you make me laugh. I saw some inner fender wells on ebay. Guy wanted 350 for the pair. Thought that was overkill at first but then I though hmmmm.....
