New cheap bling

scott2007nomad · 10-05-2009, 08:22 PM

Can you see the chrome cover over the bolt on the right that holds the top of the fork?

Let's just say the idea came to me while standing up in the restroom.

A little Amazing Goop later, BLING!

Now that's an interesting idea!

dogdoc · 10-05-2009, 09:24 PM

come off a commode? LOL

fish · 10-05-2009, 09:30 PM

looks like the cover for the shut-off on a urinal?

Looks like a trip to the local plumbing supply store is in order. Ain't Nomaders are a clever bunch?

I actually have one as well but I couldn't figure out how to make it stay. Please tell more......part number? how it is applied? etc.

Looks nice.

I can see it now, The rape and plunder of every mens room in America!

Don't eat the mints!

silcone adhesive caulk, just a dab is all you need. if you read all the catalogs for add on bling, they say attach with silicone adhesive. if you want it off someday just pull it off.

With your brain so intently engaged, I hope your shoes remained dry.
;)

For us plumbing-challenged types, what specifically are we looking for?

And could glue and a magnet replace silicon caulk for attachment?

(Damn, my shoes!)

there is a friend of mine on another site who rides a Vol, and 90% of the chrome is from Lowe's & Home depot... but the bike is amazing looking even won trophies for best at show,,go figure. if i can get a pic and then learn how to up load on here i'd show you what it looks like

That would work, but what if you wanted to work on the shocks?

I used "Household Amazing Goop" to hold it on.
http://www.amazon.com/Amazing-All-Pu.../dp/B0000A605I
Also available at Wally World.

As far as part number, I can't help you with that one.
I just used what was handy.

I think it would pry off fairly easy as Amazing Goop stays somewhat flexible.

It must be brass as a magnet doesn't stick to it.
