Hi guys one of my facelift lights seem to have a bit of rust around one of the rings and it just annoys me looking at it. I had a search on here and i see that some members use to refurbush them but i don't want to pm them as it doesn't seem like this is being done anymore.

 

Anyone here still currently doing this and if so how much? :) thanks

The chrome rings corroded on my facelifts Claire, left them looking a creamy colour as the paint was flaking off. I looked into getting them repainted, but was told that the 'chrome' paint available wasn't really up to much and didn't look like chrome. I ended up painting the whole lot black which does look good on a black car, but can't help admiring the chrome rings when I see facelift pics. I might split them again and have a go with the chrome paint to see for myself.

It's not a hard diy job at all, lots of help topics and write ups out there to guide you through the process.
