Chain stay cover

[Pedal pusher]

Anybody got any ideas where I can find a Chrome chain stay cover/sticker. Looked in the usual places but no joy. TIA

I'm not bothered about Chrome so I make them out of an old inner tube. You could always put some chrome tape over it ,(can you still get that? *) Or some Bacofoil

* Yes you can on the Evilbay, Chrome Car Styling Tuning Moulding Strip, self adhesive.
You could use it by itself.

I think that is peak Cyclechat.

do you saw and re-weld the chain stay so the inner tube slips on neatly?

I made some sleeves for the base of the seat pin and bar stem from inner tube, they lasted all of 2 or 3 weeks before they perished, split, and fell off.
