Another day in busy China to check out the Chroming plants. Because of environmental rules this is made very easy, all plants for chroming and plating are actually in one building for the whole city area!

This building house over 25 companies…:)

the center of the wheel and the rim is always chromed separately..

Chroming is a process of several baths , I mean many baths, to rinse, coat and rinse, and  rinse and rinse….:)

here the center caps for modular wheels… everything is fully automatic….

This is the real chrome actually… after the nickel…..

This is a big building… wowh, very impressive…

Food! yes, we have to feed ourselves, something they know very well how to do in China, forget about Chinese restaurants  in Europe or the USA, here everything is fresh????? you choose they prepare…

and prepared it looked like this….yammie….:)

Thanks Jimmy for taking me around today

And this is my favorite part… the sharing scooter… Thousands of this scooters spoils the cities, You scan and drive… real nice, and real cool too!

Thank you to all for the great hospitality I could enjoy in China, great country…

It seems  that Bob is needed  to be in China to speed up the trade talks between Trump and China as things finally seem to move in the good direction (except for the EU anti-dumping tax on steel wheels out of China, that is)

Well we speed up as well as we have a whole bunch of new products in our system this week!

The late split early bay tail gates have finally arrived and they’re just perfect!!

They fit beetle and also all Brazilian made buses (where it’s always broken). For the beetle please double check your diameter, there are two different dimensions used, this is the 36mm diameter one.
