Just an update on my 57 GMC grill situation. I finally got it back from being "redone" from Nu-chrome in Fall River, Ma. The finished product is now acceptable, but to me wasn't worth the time and aggravation. I just wish they had done it right the first time. But, at least, they did re-do it. While at the shop, I did see some other finished parts in the shop that really looked good, though. However, They do not get my highest recommendation. Just an opinion; Your results may vary from mine.
I am currently waiting for some other parts from 2 other chrome shops. I will share the results with the group when I get the parts back.
