this spring i want to paint and chrome my stock a-arms can it be done i know your gonna tell me to buy aftermarket a-arms but right now i dont have the cash for um so could u guys show me some pics of your arms painted or chromed thanks alot.

the best your going to do is using spray paint or POR 15. Since the ball joints are non removable you can't powdercoat them with out the boot burning/melting. I have a set of converted A-arms for sale if you want to go that route. They are stock A-arms but were professionally bored and have a sleeve and removable ball joint on them.

You should go online and buy a set of used aftermarket arms for around $200. Then get those chromed or powdercoated.

Like many of us it sounds like money is an issue:(

Is making it look pretty more imortant than making it handle good?

IMO if the stock arms are in good structual shape clean and prep them very well, don't take any short cuts or rush things. Prime, paint and clear coat them. Then spend your money on a decent set of shocks.

actually joex it's 50/50 for me i like to make it look good and handle great.i dont really know much about ebay and i dont want people to scam me either.

[wheeltrax]

yea, ebay can be your best friend and worst enemy. There are alot of great people on there, but there are also alot of duds that ruin it for everyone.

I agree, just look at their feedback and the will give you some sort of an idea.
