I've used Niphos in Crewe for my Triumphs bumpers they were ok.
If you want a real quality job then there's Derby plating they're very good but expensive.
Google is your friend here but whoever you use will be slow and it's not cheap, it might be cheaper to buy new ones.
 
Are you sure you need Chrome, I'm not an expert but those Exhaust Tips look very like Polished Stainless to me! :confused:

Wonder Wheels Cleaner, fine Steel Wool and a proprietary Polish such as Autosol may restore the shine, all for a bit of elbow grease. :thumb:

No it's chrome, the Y is stainless.
I have had them on my polishing mop and it's pitted rust.

These tail pipes are expensive £840 the pair! just had my first quote back over £300!
I will call Derby plating now.
 
For gods sake man take that watch off whilst working with the car.

Sorry but no recommendations but good luck in your search.

Spoke to Darby plating and he did think is Stainless so about to look again at them with a magnet.

My watch never comes off!

I have lots of watches but treat them a bit precious, at least you get the use out of yours.

Could sell the watch to buy new tips
