No... But I called in there many years ago when I needed the Charger bumper rechromed. The guy said 'yes, we can do anything, at a price'. The stuff on display looked excellent but their quote was astronomic. Similar to London Chroming.

I used Colonade Metal Finishers in Wembley - They did a great job and weren't the dearest out there !!!

went down to Douglas metal finishing yesterday,they said they could straighten it and triple plate it for £600.They weren't impressed with the chrome on the bumper already ,so hopefully will do a good job.Only downside 12 week wait.

Look, its a few years since I used them but these guys used to be top notch. Located in Beds. Perhaps someone has more recent experience.

They did everything for me - Bumpers, handles, mirrors etc etc.
