Has anyone gone about re-chroming their tailpipes? Just asking if it's possible and is it cost effective? Wonder if annodising is a route?

Thanks

Not heard of it, maybe more convenient to get a lightly used pair https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Aston-Martin-Vantage-Ta...tongue outf:0

I think they are about £250 each new, so under £200 for a pair seems ok

I'd imagine £200 would get you a lot of re-chroming. scratchchin

Not chromed. Stainless steel, so polish them up with metal polish
