I was wondering if anyone has had a bumper or similar re-chromed.
My back bumper is straight but the chrome is stuffed, just wondering on an approximate cost to get it re-chromed versus buying another one.

Cheers, Nunny

I had a already striped clubman front bumper rechromed last year for $140 in Sydney.

how much does the powdercoating cost? It's for my mini1000 clubby so prob wont spend too much on it, although I refuse to spray it the same colour as the car, I hate that :evil:

Powdercoating is pretty cheap - usually a $20 minimum though.
Usually needs to be sandblasted first.
