Hey guy's. Doe's anyone know of a reputable chrome shop in the Pacific Northwest. Been checking around. They are all the best! I want to redo my bumper's. Is $748.00, plus $60.00 Per Bumperette Fare? $338.00, rear, $410.00, Front. Just checking before, I sell the Farm.

Pat, I hope this isnt the (in)famous 'bumper boys' carlos and roscoe or whatever his name is. I have heard bad things. I used Pauls Chrome Plating in Mars Pennsylvania. They arent the cheapest, they do excellent work with 3 grades of plating available. O.E.M. which is regular single layer chrome. Then the show car which is triple nickel chrome, then Concours which is perfect, no imperfections. The prices you list are not that bad. Do Not swap your bumpers for cores. Use your bumpers the car came with. Many shops use an exchange program, this is not the way to go. The re-pop bumpers are thinner gauge steel. I measured them. You can feel the difference in the weight when you hold one in your hands!

Just a heads up, I ordered from Bumper Boys. I then did a wack of online research and found tons of bad feedback on these guys. Over and over agian people said the chrome would peel or it would discolor around the year old mark. They promised me they're product was as good as any.

One year later, chrome peeling off about a dime size from an edge. I epoxy'd it so it wouldn't keep going.

Cheap, Cheap, Cheap Crap Chrome. Absolutely no durability especially to put on a car. Bumper was extremely thin as well. I'm an idiot for having to much faith in people, after being warned.

Sorry to hear about that Brant.

Thank's Guy's! This information is "Gold"! I found a good vender in Vancouver. "Star Bright Plating". They use "My Bumper's". Their price's are the one's, I quoted. Their websight is, www.starbrightchromeplating.com. Phone # 1-877-247-6634

Pat,Post some pics when you get em back! Bet they are going to be very nice. It's only money,(paper), and by this time next year the U.S. dollar will be 1/2 of what it's worth now!
