Are there areas that are prone to rust or internal damage? I read a few arrticles and they mentioned the pipes are not good candidates for re-chromeing and the potential of scrap is high. These appear to be solid just not clean chrome. Thoughts, I have a good plating shop but if there is a high potential to lose the OE pipes I'll live with the imperfections. Thanks for your feedback. |

The insides of the pipes would have to be cleaned out, thoroughly. |
