Re spraying a frame at Argos would cost around £300+/- for a single colour + lug lining + decals applied. It also depends if they have got to fill some pitting and how much as that will alter price. Then your decals £30 ish. I can highly recommend them but I understand that Mario Vaz is cheaper.
Most chroming places will take bike bits but check first because the most industrial places will prioritize big jobs and might leave you waiting months for your bits. And I found that it will be more expensive if there is a lot of polishing to pitted parts to be done, as this is time consuming, but otherwise will show if rechrome without polishing.
