at 10 foot away it does, lol. If you want chrome just get chrome. What is it that you are coating anyways? I hope they aren't stock arms because if so you'll be spray bombing them with 50 foot chrome:p

Yeah they are stockers. I just decided I am going to paint them myself with pj1 frame paint. Plus I cant get the fittings off the end of the a -arm and I dont want to force it.

Yeah the stockers don't come apart. They are pressed in a way that if you do get them apart they will not go back. Just getcha some 50 foot chrome and it will be cool.:blah:
