DJ Force Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 (edited) I want to build a proper DeLorean and in order to do so I need metallic silver parts. Obviously. Now I know most of the parts I need are officially not available. However, it has come to my attention some folks make it a sport to hunt and collect parts in colors they officially don´t exist in. So my best guess is to just ask around for the following parts in metallic silver: 1x4 Tile (7) 1x2 Tile (7) 1x1 Tile (1) 2x2 Tile (2 - and I know these exist) 1x2 Grill (1) 1x6 plate (1) 1x4 plate (4) 1x3 plate (2) 1x2 plate (4) 1x2 Jumper (4) 2x3 plate (4) 2x4 plate (4) 1x2 brick (2) 1x3 brick (1) 1x4 brick (1) 1x2 plate modified (4) 1x1 with clip (8) 2x4 wedge (1 - these do exist) 2x4 wedge (1 - yes, they do) I have some metallic silver parts for trade that I found in an Agents 1.0 set: 4 2 1 Edited July 16, 2009 by DJ Force
Mr. Lego-builder Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Seeing how there have been no replies, I guess there's no harm in bringing this one to life again... Apologies if you have found all these parts already OR if you gave up on this quite ambitious project of yours. (It is unfortunate if it happens to be the latter.) Recently, while lurking around Bricklink, I came across this store: http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=ChromeBricks They also have some sample photos here: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=394166 I just wanted to give you a heads up of this fantastic resource. Happy building! EDIT: The custom order options (look at the last FAQ question) and just makes it that much more enticing!
Holodoc Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Do you want metallic silver or chrome silver? If you want the latter, have a look at the BL-store mentioned above. Or click over at www.chromebricks.com. It´s driven by Ansgar, at german 1000steine member. Look at the 1000steine forum to get news how he made the chrome bricks. It´s really interesting! He´s planning to sell chrome gold and chrome bronze bricks in the shop as well. He opened the shop on sunday, so don´t expect too much right now. If you were looking for metallic silver parts - then don´t mind...
FireHawk302 Posted July 29, 2009 Posted July 29, 2009 If you want metallic silver, I could paint them for you, visit my website!
DJ Force Posted July 30, 2009 Author Posted July 30, 2009 (edited) Wow, I really didn´t expect to see this thread coming to life again. Thanks for all your suggestions, but in fact I´m looking for metallic silver, not chrome silver. But I might use some of the chrome parts for other MOCs...! Firehawk, going to your website now!
