DutchRebel Posted March 21, 2008 Fellow lego fans, I want to chrome the grey parts of my Naboo N-1 starfighter (7660). Does anybody in this forum have any experience with this kind of work? As you might guess, I want to make it look like the UCS naboo fighter... I was thinking of using Aclad model paint... good idea? Thanx for your replies in advance, DutchRebel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimBee Posted March 21, 2008 hmmm.... i havent done this before, but im not sure if paint is the best choice... maybe silver spraypaint? or you could always buy the pieces off of bricklink... ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
casewindu Posted March 21, 2008 I think jims right bricklink would probably be the best option because if the spray painting goes wrong you wont have lost a part that you may one to use at another time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WookieeWarrior Posted March 22, 2008 or you could always buy the pieces off of bricklink... ;-) I've considered that, but it will run around $100 to get the chrome parts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
