Rechroming bumper
I’m curious as this is probably coming a lost art,but looking for a shop nearby,within 200 miles,that can rechome my original bumper,it’s on my 1972 GTO,I live in SC, I’m 2 hrs from Charlotte NC,and 2 hrs from Columbia SC,so looking for someone that’s very reputable,my old on is perfectly straight,no rust or even scrapes,but several places,I call spider webs,so I want them like a mirror,I can get a aftermarket one and suppose to be heavy duty like original not a piece of tin,lol....$750, that’s triple plated,with a 5 year guarantee.from NPD,which I have bought from before,with no problem.

i just got my chevelle bumper back from tri city plating in Tennessee. great work, quick turn around (like a month?). they have been in business forever (like 40-50 years?) the last plater i used local to me was 40 weeks.
I will say this, you wont get a rechrome done for less than $750. expect to be over $1k easy. I've got a bunch of A bodies, and while i will say some of the aftermarket stuff for Chevelles is very good, there is no replacement for a rechromed original.
