MG MGF Technical - dual metallising

hi has anybody had lights refurbed by them if so how good and how fast turnaround time ?

Yes they are pretty good; cost about £100 all up and it takes about ten days using Royal Mail's P***ehole Force.
Pay more, get it sooner.
They do require you to remove every bit of adjuster socket plastic from the back of the bowls though, or they shiney plate them too - which then become a bit of a job to reassemble without breaking.

Feedback is uniformly good from what I've heard - so proceed with confidence I think.

Well that's extremely disappointing - thanks for feeding back, I think that this is the first negative report that I've had about their service. :o(
