Re:

ive been thinking about painting the crown to match the legs, but i thought id give sanding and polishing it a go first. it was quite pitted

this is where its at now, its taken a lot of sanding and it is better but a fair amount of corrosion remains. it probably wont get much better beyond this point... what do you guys reckon, should i paint it?

+1 for polishing.
You will be happy with it, for sure!

ive emailed Gil@thecycleshed today regarding some graphics for this fork, fingers crossed he has them on file and can get back to me with some templates.

The forks have had four coats of satin black and now the paint has hardened ive reassembled them with some new bolts.....
