Chroming Zetec Coil Pack Bracket
MattCraneCustoms - 4/10/06 at 09:12 PM

Don't know if anyone could tell me off hand, I want to get the gold (anodised?) Zetec coil pack bracket chromed, but I'm wondering whether this earths the little sensor on the bracket to the block? If so should I not get it chromed? Its got some black marks, like pitting but not deep, want chroming to cover it.
Hope someone has an answer!
Regards
Matt

It will still earth if you chrome it. The finish on it is most likely a zinc passivate surface.

Matt, there is a guy around your neck of the woods (well Nottingham) who does a heck of a lot of chroming and polishing for Vauxhall parts.

He also sells a lot on eBay.

Worth sending him a PM or email.

Excellent cheers for that. I'm sure someone advertised on ebay that they do chroming in coventry, which is where I go to uni so that would have been ideal. It is very bling considering I haven't even built a car to put the engine into yet!!
