Yeah saw the new one Pilkie. Very nice too.
For now I'm happy it matches the general condition of the rest of the chrome. I'll probably rechrome later with the rest. Incidentally, I've been recommended S&T plating in your fair city by more than one freind who had motorcycle bits done. Any experiences with them?
Unfortunately I also need to drill it to take the plastic number plate holder. Swiss plates belong to the driver and hence need to be removeable. The black plastic holders have a clip mechanism to allow this, they are somewhat smaller than a UK plate.
Not sure I'd have the nerve to do that to perfect NOS, especially at £99. Although coincidentally that's the price of a secondhand one from Wins plus a rechrome anyway so in a way they are actually good value.
Thanks all, especially Jim. Top bloke.

S,T have done excellent chrome for me for my 1954 MGTF1500!
By the time you buy one s/h get it delivered,then post it to get rechrome done and sent back theres £99 gone dead easy!
Buy a nos one and it should last for years if well looked after,considering they were just bits on cars back then,and now mostly cherished motors polished and pampered!
