This is my restored roof rack ...
Hello guys,
here are some pics of my roof rack parts which I received today.
The rail supports were rechromed by a company which is specialized in vintage car parts.
The rails are anodized aluminium. They were de-anodized, then polished to
remove all scratches and after anodized again.
I´m really happy with this result. I applied new original DINOC woodgrain to the rails and hope to install all very soon on the Wagoneer.
P.S. Please ignore the finger prints on the chrome... 
Here are the pics:
Greetings from Germany,
Gunnar

Thanks to all.
@Rich88: I try to give my pictures always a creative breeze...
So the flowers are not by chance.
