I found an old mirror that I want to use on my car. Its all pitted and very old can side mirrors be rechromed? and if anyone has had them rechromed how much did it cost you?
Yes, and no. Most side mirrors have a diecast zinc alloy arm and a stamped steel mirror head and some cannot be dismantled after factory assembly without knocking out the glass to access the fasteners. If the glass is still good you might consider beadblasting and painting the assembly. Chances are replating the mirror components would be cost prohibitive unless it is such a unique piece you just have to have done.
