They look lovely - so how does one go about getting them chrome plated?

Fan blinking tastic, where do we form an orderly que, cheque book in hand lol

Those are gooooooooood!

Can chrome them, but need a conductive substrate to chrome onto. Google will tell all I reckon.

Thats correct mate...When i looked into it a little while back when i was getting TVR badges re-Chromed i was chatting to a guy that runs a plating business here in sunny souf londin..I believe they have to have a nickel plating applied first...I might pick his brains again to see what it will cost for a batch...Cheers...Ziga
