We tried several times to get a rollbar chromed, and every time it just wasn't quite right. Generally the colors in the joints just didn't turn out right.

Finally we just went to making the rollbars out of 321 Stainless instead of beating our heads against the wall whenever somebody wants the chrome look. They polish up gorgeously, and will never lose the outer layers. Or flake, crack, peel, scratch off, discolor ....

...or get eaten away from the inside by rust.

If I were going to get a rollbar polished, I'd think seriously about just getting it duplicated in 321 SS. It's a permanent and beautiful solution.

If you like this option, I'd recommend checking locally. We really wouldn't be able to do it for you, since all our rollbars are made in Poland.
