Decided on chrome shop

After http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=800754 I talked with FAUXRS friend Eric who had his bumpers done by bumper to Bumper Inc. and he quoted $135 p/ rear and $65 p/ front bumper guards all 3 plate process and show quality guaranteed. The chrome grill surrounds shoud be in Thursday from CC and plan on removing the rest this weekend and drop off hopefullyin time for the first La Mesa car show in late May.

:cheers:

Yeah Eddie those prices are much more fair. I'll have to look at all the supporting hardware and see if it warrants attention but sounds like a good idiea.

Cali, have you checked "South of the Border"? I would think that being in San Dog that Mexico might be the ticket???

I would think that there would be a legit place to use. Just have to find that place. Maybe a little further south then TJ.
