Brooklyn350 Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Just like the post says I had a new set of snipers chromed and one was dented during shipping. Can anybody recommend someone who can repair the dent? It’s a smaller one so probably won’t come out with air and heat. I’m thinking of getting it welded filled and ground smooth. Already spoke to the person who chromed it and he will rechrome at no charge. The whole deal sucks.

gusto Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Try the power washer trick maybe. they look great, they’re loud if you haven’t run them before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caleb90 Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 You can stud weld a stud onto the dent. Then use a slide hammer to bring it out. Grind flat rechrome.. problem is once you start fucking with it , it will be hard to get perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
specialblend07 Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 IMO anything you do will affect the chrome. You can try compressed air, but that’ll require you to block both ends of the pipe. Besides that, not much. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperChaos Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 That is a kick in the dick man. Do you have any way to shrink the metal in that spot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machinegunbanshee Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 Damnit. I'm willing to get on a list and wait, but damn if they don't have a list no more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooklyn350 Posted July 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 Kick In the dick is not the word. I sent my kick start to get chromed with the pipes and they didn’t wrap it up good on the way back so it was banging against the pipe. I think it’s too small and sharp of a dent for the classic dent removal. Good news is I emailed Gary and he said he can fix it and send back to the chrome shop for me. Top notch customer service. I wasn’t even crazy about chroming them In the first place just didn’t want to deal with the raw upkeep but w.e that’s in the past now.

machinegunbanshee Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 I emailed him. I'm on the list. 1.5 years before he expects to have mine done. Op... sorry if I took your thread off course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
