Has anyone had there front and rear bumpers rechromed? If so where did you get it done?? Theee are no electroplaters in the NT so I will need to send mine south..

Any idea on costs?? Or has anyone got a very good set to sell??

Paul,

Eye-wateringly expensive is the honest answer.  Between $150 and $200 per section, and about $150 for an overrider.  Six bumper sections, four overriders, and on an FC the rear number plate surround, means upwards of $1500.

I had my chroming done at Electroplating Technology in Queanbeyan, and I'd recommend them.
