I've had bumpers re-plated a couple yrs ago @ Hajjar in Wayne MI. Nice work n lifetime warranty. I would say the price was fair Olly Sent from my BlackBerry device on the Rogers Wireless Network From: "gremlin_corvette_guy" <gremlin_corvette_guy@xxxxxxxxx>

Subject: [BaadAssGremlins] Chrome plating Hey guys, Has anyone ever had any good luck with finding a decent place to chrome plate AMC volcano wheel center caps? I had a reputable plater tell me just today that because they are diecast if there are any pits or bubbles in the chrome that those need to be drilled out individually ($20.00/pit) and filled with a specific lead, then copper plated, polished and chromed one, maybe two times and even then there are no guarantees the chrome may not pit or bubble. Cost - between $250 - $350 PER center cap. If there are repairs to the fins or the edge rim then the cost goes up even higher. I just bought an NOS center cap on ebay last week for $105.00!!! BRAND NEW. I have about 2 dozen older ones at home and they are always for sale on ebay. Would be a great business if there was a way to rechrome cheaply and resell them. And no this guy said the spray on chrome guy he knows will guarantee the job for about 1/2 hour and that is it!! __._,_.___
