Only company I'd recommend is the London Chroming Co. You'll pay for the job, but their work is second to none. I got both bumpers done by them.

Check out all the worn epns cutlery you currently use! Is banning it for gold plating purposes for things we might touch really going to make a significant difference to all the stuff we put in out mouths every day???

Rimmers are having a sale at the moment, rear bumpers very reasonable at £23.50 and rear quarters at a tenner. VAT included. Might save you a few quid.

CCR (aka. Custom Chrome) in Nuneaton may do it, they used to do lots, and will hopefully do mine, but I think are packing it in, mainly as theres little or no money in it...<br>

theres a firm in hinckley called nuneaton fine finishing! They do a lot of polishing for me. They quoted me about £80 for a spitfire bumper. Could be worth a look!
