Yellow Zinc plating in AZ or anywhere else?
Does anyone know of a place that can re-plate my engine brackets and hardware?

I dropped off my spring plates to have done with Istook's in Fort Worth last week.

I am pretty sure there is a place in town that does it. I think it is around Washington and 40th street. Sorry, I don't know the name. If not...
Checkout Eric at
www.pmbperformance.com He rebuilds 914 calipers and Zinc plates them.

You can also buy kits to do it yourself, although I don't know how the quality of the plating compares to the businesses that do it.

I used Burbank plating and they did an amazing job. It was $75 for plating. I would highly recommend them. To make sure they could match the color, I sent a brand new piece but by now they should know the proper shade.

Give Exotic Motorwerks a call, they probably could tell you who does it locally

The lady who answered didn't know, I asked her if anyone else there might know and the answer was "NOPE." Maybe I'll try later and hope someone else answers.

...All else fails- it also comes in a spray can! Check Hardware stores. Parts must be clean as hell too.
