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.

"nickel is carcinogenic and is to banned for gold plating purposes in case it contacts the skin"<br>
<br>
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!
