cheap alternative to chrome your bumpers.

Post by pandemonium001 »

In the days of the recession, everyone is looking to save where they can,
my friend at work found this site when looking through streetfighter magazine.

looks quite good, you can also buy their stuff here:

so for my rusty bumpers that where probably going to be shadow lined any way i will be trying this first. maybe even black chrome.

but for £50 for better looking chrome work i think its not to bad. 1/2 ltr will do loads of parts.

It's a mirror coating, seemingly designed for glass?

Would it be suitable for a bumper, that can flex and twist during fitting?

If it's anything like the chrome look powder coat you can get, it's about as close to chrome as wrapping in tin foil.
