Sorry for the delay. And also an amendment has been made, the $65.00 DOES include laminating. This is done using a small press and two part epoxy to ensure it is pressed hard and straight.

Stainless S is way better than chrome-pitting prone originals even unpolished look very good.
A quick buff with bi-carb or toothpaste will make it chrome very quickly.
I wish I didnt pay more for original NOS ones instead now

By way of an update, I have had alot of difficulty with the laminating fo these. The trial went well but the subsequent units have been tricky
 
Sorry for the delay, I will have them done asap

This is a nightmare!!  The laminating is extremely difficult and I'm contemplating refunding them, arghh!! So much effort for comparatively little gain.
 
Here is what the last looks like, ignore the black slag, that all comes off when washed in hot water. They are a high polish but a bit hard to see that in this picture.

Full refunds have been issued, I am unable to achieve anything close enough to the original.
 
I apologise sincerely for taking so long and if I do eventually succeed I will advise the buyers once again.
 
Sorry once again gentleman. It is not often that I go back on my word, but these are simply too costly to produce for the price. Doesn't sound true but the cost to produce one simply exceed the sale price.
