    Hey all,
    I am looking to get my bumpers redone in chrome and was wondering if $250 per bumper was a good deal and what other people have seen them going for. I am in the process of still calling around for quotes. Just curious what others would pay. Thanks.

    $250-$350 seems to be the going rate, unfortunately. Viva la EPA.

    I have a pair of 70 small bumpers at TriCity right now. The quote was $300 each.

    Yes, thank you EPA rules. No wonder everything chrome gets made in China now.

    :cry:
