I'm going to engage Wizard Chrome at Narangba, I have no affiliation but have seen there work and it's pretty impressive. Pricing isn't to bad either but would still think you'd need to budget $5K to do a complete car. https://www.wizardclassicchrome.com.au/ Cheers Marc Title: Re: chrome platers Post by: chucati on May 07, 2019, 09:02:07 AM I recently used All Metal Bumpers at Ingleburn in Sydney and was quite pleased with the results, they did a good job on the diecast parts.
Some areas on close inspection could see some faults but I am not building a show car and the cost was reasonable when doing a bulk lot job. |
