They are good and have a web site to show off some projects etc but they are very expensive!!

Also try Stidds as the people who did his quad appear to have done a blinding job too. I am saving pennies to send my Star to them to get re-done as the 1st re-chrome aint good enough :-\

Sean (Stidds) used Doug Taylor at Weston Super Mare. Have a look at his quad, it's awesome. Also take a look at my TRM freestyler in the Bike of the Year thread, Doug did that too. He triple plates (showchrome) as standard so is not cheap - but definately worth it. I got frame/forks and bars done and got pennies change from 300 sheets.
