Retro-gone. Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 got my rear bumper back from the chromers today, re-plating doesnt get any better than this, im just coating the back with zinc primer then smoothrite silver
LEONMEX Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 oooohhh,very nice ive enquired about getting my bumpers done but been quoted silly prices
Retro-gone. Posted January 17, 2009 Author Report Posted January 17, 2009 this cost me £110 which i dont consider silly as new old stock bumpers are sellin at £150 + and the chroming is shite compared to this quality
LEONMEX Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 that is cheap as chips,1 company quoted £500 to do my quarter bumpers & rear bumper
Retro-gone. Posted January 17, 2009 Author Report Posted January 17, 2009 oh man thats just total rip off! ive spent thousands with this guy in the past 20 years and lways been happy with the result and the price, they will even send a courier to pick ya stuff up and return it when done.. get a quote via this link, include pics if poss, mention tony mcguire from bridlington reccomended them . http://www.qualitychrome.co.uk/index.asp based in Hull

Copey Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 problem is it puts my front bumper to shame so im gonna get that done when ive saved up then the mirrors, door handles, window trim etc? lol
Retro-gone. Posted January 17, 2009 Author Report Posted January 17, 2009 i got the door handles done last year, and the overiders, number plate light.. all other stuff is mint, just the front bumper to do, altho that looked great til i compared it with the new stuff. gettin my engine pulleys done too cos i dont like the cambelt cover.. so im goin naked.
GT_lenny Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 VERY NICE I'll bear them in mind when i'm ready to get the tina bumpers done
bomber1 Posted January 18, 2009 Report Posted January 18, 2009 can they sort out badley pitted door handles?
Retro-gone. Posted January 18, 2009 Author Report Posted January 18, 2009 looks great on bomber, they can only do there best mate, door handles are made of die cast metal and quite a thin material, the pitts have to be polished out which means taking enout meat off the handle to rid the pitts, so i cant really answer that, they will have to see them.. i had my slightly pitted handles done and they came up mint.
bomber1 Posted January 18, 2009 Report Posted January 18, 2009 your bumper looks great and will bear them in mind
Retro-gone. Posted January 18, 2009 Author Report Posted January 18, 2009 can you source some in better condition and have them chromed?
