They weren't horrendous granted but, they weren't nice enough for me and certainly couldn't have polished them up. :daumenhoch:

O.K got my bits back today(bars,chainring and suntour xc-II cages),happy to report that the finish is bloody fantastic,It's almost too shiny,It's putting the OG chrome on my nos frame and forks to shame.They got rid of a nasty ding in the bars as requested,even I struggled to tell where it was!The company i used specialise in aviation electroplating,they are not cheap but being a 10 minute drive from my house and being able to take the bits there and specify what i wanted i think is priceless.Thoroughly proffessional and nice to deal with they know what is required for show bikes.They quoted me a 7-10 day turnaround and stuck to it.I would highly recommend and would use them again :daumenhoch:
