gday rusty, just had both my front and rear bars together with a heap of other stuff done by a mob near canberra called electroplating technologies ( can dig up number if you need) any way my bumper bars were anything but straight and clean and these guys did a fantastic job. all for less than the price of replacements from rare spares.

Thanks Dean, but Canberra is just a tad too far to send off my bumper to get rechromed, will keep looking local to get it done

g'day rusty,

there is a place in ballarat that does bumpers so if you have no luck here,  give me a yell.  as you know, i travel up and down each day so could organise a pick up and delivery for you if needed.

Rusty,

'Dandenong bumper bars' seem to be part of Vinneys metal polishers (they share the same address and phone: 97947530).  I have heard the quality of their work is very good but my bumpers have been there since before Xmas so don't expect a great turn-around. Luckily, I'm not in a hurry....
