I need to get my Comet bumpers re-chromed to match the rest of my restoration, but have heard so much good and bad about various re-chroming companies. Who do you know that is truly good and reasonable... and the chrome does not peel 6 months later?
Ive used a local shop down here on my 57 project. Good work cheap 1 week turn around. But that wouldnt help you on the East coast
Frank, Here is a direct link to the thread showing your before and after pics ... http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=75496&highlight=bumper Still blows my mind! I ran across a 69.5 Mav in a local yard and ended up snagging the front bumper only after seeing your pics ... it is in somewhat better shape than the one you started out with. I would have walked away from it previously, thinking it was too far gone.
Had my 71' front re-chromed locally here in NJ for $225, rust started 12 months later, waste of my money. Did some research and found this company, all they do is straighten and re-chrome bumpers, nothing else: North Star Plating Company 2110 S. 10th St. Brainerd, MN 56401 (218)-829-4063 $339 and your core, show quality, not cheap.
