I've used metro plating also. It took a little while but it was good enough work.

Dinos63 · 07-06-2011, 08:58 PM

I have use metro and a few others,metro does take the longest but does the best job (in my case),i had my grille done by a north phx shop for my sub 9 weeks 500.00 and it was nice chrome but crappy a$$ service, tough call kat!!

I have a 65 C10 and I took both bumpers, door sills, all 4 door handles, and window cranks to ROYAL PLATING in Tucson. They did a absolutely awesome job. I drove everything down there and one of the owners brought everything back up to Phoenix for me. Give them a call
(520) 622-7826 Well worth every penny....

yeah, may be worth the trip to Tucson, kinda sad we live in this big a** city and cant find a good chrome shop!

special thanks goes out to the EPA, all of the chrome shops around here were forced out of business due to over regulation and multi million dollar upgrades...now the nearest place is 300 miles away
