Engine Dressup Question
I have seen the chrome plated washer tank, coolant tank, and air bridge. These look very good. Who makes them and how much are they.
Thanks,
Bob

My tank covers came from Greg Brown at KEWL. The Halltech airbridge was plated by Advanced Plating in Nashville. Most of other stuff came from Creative Engine Covers, Street & Performance and PDS.

I have the complete Kewl engine package, including the awesome but pricey Chrome Plenum Cover! 
I was wondering about the air bridge. Did you just have a company nickel/chrome plate yours for you? Or did you buy it already chromed? (Actually I was hoping someone might sell the air bridge already chromed, and ready to "bolt on.")

I wanted the Halltech Cobra chromed so, I sent it to Advanced.

It's not on CEC's web site... I emailed to inquire about it though since they're about 75 miles from here. If not, I can always buy a stock air bridge from Bob @ Fichtner and send it to Advanced Plating.
Can you give me an idea of their pricing? Was your Halltech under $100 to plate? Over $200?
