I've heard good things about this place. I've heard they shoot for perfection and aren't cheap....

Hey George,
Not to hijack this tread but an easy answer....no one. Phipps is gone and the guy by the airport just don't get it.
Advanced did all four bumpers on the '64....and you've seen how they look. The rechroming cost for all four of my original cores was slightly cheaper than purchasing four new repros....easy decision.
Advanced or Ogden are the best.

Is Ogden Plating still in business?
In the mid 90's, I sent them the air cleaner lid and 'Chevrolet' script valve covers for my Camaro to get re-plated, very nice work and even now, they still look great.
Oh, and for the curious, it was $160.00 to have them plated plus $5.00 to ship it all back to Alaska.
