While my car was being repainted (after being rear ended), I decided to have the front bumper rechromed. I had originally made a pretty rough cut out, so I asked the shop to clean up my cut, straighten any waves in the bumper (it was already pretty straight), and then rechrome it.

It turned out way better than I was expecting. They basically rebuilt my original work and the chrome looks awesome. I can't wait to see it on the car (done in about a week)...
