I'm wary of sending parts of for plating as heard stories of lost parts getting someone else's parts etc. Lol.I bought some engine guards off a guy that had them rechromed but never used them only when I tried fitting them did I find they were wrong.

You could try the one in Manc. The one Gordy Brock recommended to me. They seem okay.

No probs - happy to help.
Trying to remember the name of the Manchester one. Both had quite a quick turnaround though.

I have used Mark @ R S Plating in Manchester a few years ago on a Honda CD175A (sloper) restoration, very pleased with the results (will try a post an image) He does not do any thing too complicated (he refused to re-chrome a luggage carrier) which I then sent to a firm in Kent...the result was OK but nothing like Marks work  |
