Should I Paint These Frames or Not

[John Straub]

I just got these back from the plater. The first photo is the unrestored frames, the second is the frames with new plating. The V.P. and E.Z. frames were black with white letters. The C.M. frame had orange on the inside.

What do you guys think?

I kind of like them un restored.

They look very nice, you could just put them on, as is, and if you like paint them later. Hopefully no one would be so crass as to point out that they are not "correct".

John,

Thanks for the reply... like I said, I would personally paint them

Now that they're plated, I'd finish the job and paint them. But, I'm with Longballa -- I prefer the unrestored look. Guess it depends on what you're doing with them.
