Re chroming
Would like to get my front and rear bumpers, as well as my tail light housings re chromed. Has anyone done this lately, that can provide me info on what to look for in a plater, as well as approx. cost?
My housings are pitted a little, can this be filled/fixed?

You are probably better off buying repo tail lights. They are around $200 maybe a little more. The cost to rechrome will most likely be more.
I think bumpers are around $250-$350 each to have done.

I have had very good work from a company in TN. AAA Chrome and Gold. Carl will quote you over the phone or by e-mail if you send a picture. 615 264-1312. It was worth sending out of state.

Tail Lights
Don't buy those cheaply made crummy ones on Ebay, you can get the TRIM parts ones, far superior for the same price. I bought my Trim Parts tail lights from Wilcox Corvette for $200 a couple months ago.
The other chrome service place folks seem to be happy with Areba Chrome Services. Google him and he even posts a price list.
