So a friend of mine printed off a trigger mod for a flight stick but it came out a little rough as it's a fairly low'ish end printer.

The triggers are about 2 inches long and each has 2 x pieces to them.

Left is my friends print job, Right is the pic edited to what I would actually like the end result to be, I have an earlier print and sanding didn't really help it look/feel better.

Are there any print services in the UK, Not for ludicrously high prices, That could do the below job on the right ?

Your mate could print with a smaller layer height, does it come as a single print in place job, or 2 parts that fit together, which is how it looks?
Maybe print it in a different orientation?
 
I've been looking at those for my VKB's as well.
Aside from using a smaller nozzle, a better printer or ideally done in resin, perhaps use a filament that hides layer lines well. Something like a CF/GF or matte filament.

If you wanna send me the files, I can do them in PETG-CF (black) and send you a few if they turn out well. Don't see why they wouldn't.

Separate files for different pieces.

Send you a link with the print files.
