Chrome Plating - Aluminium effect

[Overhere]

Hi Just bought a roll bar off FleaBay, standard from TVR as fitted by the factory, I want to have it chrome plated, or preferably plated with aluminium effect look, I've seen it before but can't find a company to do it for me in the south.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Spray it with aluminium paint.

If you want a dull matt silver finish you could see if it can be coated.
I know a company that applies a coating called Armaloy that has that finish but it is a hard wearing engineering coating that could cost a few £.

Check google for nickel coating it is cheeper and could possibly get the same effect but you would need to speak to an electro plater.

Again google it.

If the bar is stainless steel you could have it sand blasted to give you the dull matt finish.

Second thought, phone a wheel refurbisher and get it powder coated.
