David, My three bumpers were just rechromed, in one week! Not only did they come out perfect, the owner of the shop lives nearby and gave me door to door service! The guy's name is Jerry Martin of Charger Metals in Phila. bus number 215 289 9227 Highly recommended

That's not entirely true This guy that I'm recommending actually has my neighbor sending his Edsel bumpers out to Minnesota, for better pricing. While he will be working on the smaller chrome pieces and the stainless. These larger bumpers are just to labor intensive for his shop, as he is only doing show quality work. I'll be more then happy to post a picture or two if needed?

Yes triple plated, as for the price, can't say that it will be the same, i did bargin him down a bit. My price was 1000. for the three
I thought that he said three hours in the copper, then three hours in the nickel, finally three and half to four minutes in the chrome.

He did the bumpers and door posts on my 61 4 years ago. Absolutely beautiful. Look as good today as the day they were sent to me. Not cheap but not overpriced either. Highly recommend.
I use them for my C3 parts, awesome work, fantastic shine, and friendly. They were recommended by my local Harley Davidson Shop, the largest East Coast distributor of after-market Harley parts.
