    Plastic re-chrome service wanted

    Hi, I am looking for a UK company to re-chrome some plastic trim parts on my UR. Any recommendations?
    I've tried few companies I found from a Google search but no joy. Cheers.

    Try searching for the term metalising as this is the name of the process to adhere a reflective surface to plastic items

      I've used this place to re-chrome my headlight reflectors

      Dual Metallising specialise in vacuum metallising, plastic injection moulding & spray painting for a range of markets including retail, brewing, automotive


      Did an OK job, bit pricey though.

        VMC in Chertsey. Surrey on 01932 563434

        Or

        Dual-Metalizing in Birmingham on 0121 708 2748

        I had one of my ellipsiods re-silvered but I cannot think which one I used !
        If I remember correctly one of the company's were a bit cheaper and in my case catered for a single headlamp as oppose to pairs.
        For what this cost me so far I could have bought an S2
