Looks good, a spare R/H SD pipe is always handy, still more difficult to find, than the left ones, I've found... I've got the set I took of the NHK, supposed to be getting re-chromed, but way down the priority list for now.

Surely Prince Comstar has bartered and offered thy services in exchange for thy shiney items, perhaps a few crates of thy finest ale, if not then I shall say about, maybe, somewhere around, perhaps 250 of thy finest greenbacks, and a Wispa bar and a packet of pork scratchings, or perhaps you offered membership to a certain beer hall you know of, in which case thy work shall be free for all time, if not then 250 it is... or 300 or 150, bollocks, 250 it is.

OMG. Someone could be near if not bang on already. Will reveal all when a few more members have had a stab.
In the meantime, would someone like to guestimate the costs of having the same items done on UK soil? .......assuming the re-chromers at home in Blightly now even touch used headers?
I've heard mixed stuff about that. Honestly, this guy doesn't even flinch about that - never even mentions it (the C word).

I'll go for $192.78 , as you said the chap was really good last time....
After reading various posts, SD pipes my be about £75 ea. So I would anticipate a budget of £300 before approaching the plater.
I think they were about £35 when I did the last batch, a good while back.

PS Mick when did you change your name To be honest Pete, he could of written Joe Soap, Jack Spratt........whatever....don't think I would have noticed. As long as I get the same consistent result from him on these I could not give a monkey's nuts.

I phoned Jesse and he said if you were American it would be cheaper but as you're a limey he would charge $50 more. He still didn't tell me what he's charging you though so I'll have to guess at $220.
