Re: [AMC-list] Bumper rechrome

HI- On rechroming subject. Be sure it gets full treatment of copper/nickel plating before final plating. It is getting harder and harder to find good chrome plating because of laws and getting rid of waste material. I saw  an article on new German developed water plating with Jay Leno on you tube that might interest you. Don't know much about its durability either. They plated half a hood ornament and it sure looked nice but how long it will last is another story. Who ever you use; get a written guarantee of how long it will last. Most shops cut quality and rush job since few are still in business. Take care and GOD BLESS TED"FORDMAN" EHRHARDT        FORDMANATED@xxxxxxx   Own 3 AMC Eagles along with vintage Mustangs and now a Dodge Shelby "FORDS FOREVR"

The prices actually look somewhat on the low side.
Be interested in knowing the shop, seeing their work and do they warrant their 
work?

There are shops that do driver quality rechromes, and shops that plate, buff, 
plate, buff, building to true show quality.

Make sure you are paying for what you want.

I was quoted $275 each for my 71 Javelin bumpers and $375 each for my 73 Matador 
bumpers to get them rechromed and straightened. I have never had this done and 
was wodering if this was a reasonable price?
