Type3Sicko - February 20th, 2009 at 05:56 AM

Just wondering how far the wallet needs to open for a pair of bumpers to be re chromed and straightened, can anyone recommend a business that is based round Gold coast/ Brisvegas? Thanks muchly Mine look like this, a little wavy on the top, no real rust to speak of and my square has a few bumps and ripples as well, again not much rust

Would need to open quite a bit if they are wanting the same price as when I enquired about 8 years ago! It was around $400 per bumper at a couple of the places I tried.

If you want a regular changeover job like a smash repair, they would be about $240 each

Show finish triple plate would be double that.
