Ive been quoted £348 to resilver my 18c headlamp bowl. Its appox 5 1/2 inch. ??? Ive fitted a flebay special £68 for now. ( i can use this later on another bike )
I do want to use the original again.
Any recomendations for a resilver company.

For the cost of having a go maybe try a bottle of this.

I also wondered if mixing some retro reflective beads might give you a suitable reflection.

Re: Headlamp resilver recommendations
Ashford Chroming in Kent advertise in some of the classic car comics, I assume they’d do bike reflectors too but have no idea of costs and have never had any dealings with them.
LEDs certainly do need a good reflector to give a good light.
