Re: Re-chroming
I think the best thing you can do is buy one that you can see and put your hands on.

Re: Re-chroming
I had these parts rechromed recently by Paul's Chrome out of PA. They look great but I'm embarrassed to say how much it cost......

Re: Re-chroming
it was john at duke city bumper but they've sold out to Keystone automotive and no longer do chrome plating. They specialize in plastic bumper refinishing now. Im thinking there is a commercial plating place on 4th street past osuna but I dont know if they do private work or not or even if theyre still around. Id ask classic bodyshop on 4th street (also known as mad hopper customs) and see who they use to take parts to el paso for re chroming
