Subject: Re: LG45 rear bumper blade
I knew the car Stephen has the rear bumper from and as I remember it is complete, though it will need careful repair and rechroming once the grey primer has been removed.

I cannot recall if it needs any welding, but once it is structually sound, I can strongly recommend Derby Plating Services to replate it. They will put a heavy layer of copper on and then polish it out prior to the final layer of chrome. Apparently they can get the copper to 'flow' into any imperfections and fill in any pitting, and can get a really good finish on some pretty battered and rusty items.

They are not cheap though, so get a quotation first...
