Roger89 Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 Got a bargain pair for my project spitfire 1500, £40 nice soild but a bit flaky. Still 100% better, as mine had more holes than a cheese grater. Question is who's found the best value rechrome factory? In the Midlands preferably.

Adrian Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 I think when it comes to rechroming a) best value isn’t necessarily best work as it may only be double plates and b) it’s not cheap. I had my front done at castle chrome in Dudley, they triple plated and did a great job. No receipt, cash so no VAT but still around £300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Clark Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 ACF Howell in Walsall did an excellent job rechroming the rear bumper of my GT6. Cost £290. Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 Have a search round the forum, there are a few threads with quite a number of recommendations including stainless replacements, which caused a bit of debate. It's one of those questions that shows everyone has their own particular preference for firms or products. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 Roger, Derby Plating is an excellent company, producing a quality product. Not the cheapest, but worth considering and they usually have a stand at major shows - as such you can see their product and the processes involved. Regards. Richard.

They pointed out the rippling that I hadn't noticed from previous post re-chroming polishing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
