I had a bumper chromed recently at some place whose name eludes me now... Was also an EMPI bumper - you are welcome to come look and I'll give you directions
Also paid about R800

Thanks Mr Z,
I'm gonna give these guys a try, seems like they do good work from the other forums I've read.
Just don't want these bumpers to rust.

How do they re chrome.

Do they strip all old chrome off first and start from scratch or do they chrome over chrome???????

Tony please remember your contact - I need a bumper doing too.

Goldfinger gets rid of the old chrome and then re-chromes it.
R750 for the blade bumper
R100 per overrider

Drop me a line and come visit. You can see the final product. It looks good, but only time will tell. I know these guys have acid baths for stripping all metal
I'll have to drive past them again to get their name.
