I'm in the process of gathering all the items I need to ship to the chrome shop.

Please take a look and see if I'm missing anything obvious.

Some of the items will be replaced with stainless, but I wanted to get a comprehensive list and work it from there...


Exterior
- Hood Handle
- Door Handle
- Vent window assembly
- Deck Lid Handle
- Bumpers
- VW emblem
- VW script
- Horn grill
- Side / Hood molding (SS)

Interior
- Window cranks
- Door handle
- Rag Latch handle
- Ash tray knob
- Vent window latches
- Mirror/sun visor
- Glove box button
- Center grill


thanks for your help...

your list looks pretty good
I know I did the same thing but in the end still managed to find a few pieces I wanted to do after.

not sure where you live but I will say I had a chrome "price" in mind when I went and it was about 3x's more then I thought it would be lol

I loved getting the chrome back though lots of little things to bolt on

lotza' those parts were not chromed originally... center radio grill, horn grills, VW (4 tab) emblem, trim on body and on glass... never saw a glove box button that was not perfect.
... your car's gunna' look better than new.
