Hello all,

I've got a '57 BelairBolt. I'm looking to have my bumpers straightened and chromed. I also have several other parts which need to be rechromed.
Do you have any info/advice? Any recommendations for who to take/send these parts to? I'm hoping I can find a decent place somewhere here in Indiana.

thanks

I was considering using Superior. Do you have any other recommendations for chroming?

Quincy Plating and Polishing, Quincy Illinois. 500 miles from me. I imagine you are closer.

Hey brian

there are two platers listed in yellow pages.
Do you remember the name or address?

Precision Plating on 2nd
That alzheimers must be really kicking in on me.
A biker told me about this place. I have been told if you are looking for good platers, ask at your local Harley shop for recommendations. So I did, they said, "no one in Tulsa".

Is there a decent plater in the US that you would send parts to? I was thinking about using Superior, but with all I am reading, I guess I'll just let the current finish shine on.

These guys are good, but they are very busy. Whatever time they tell you it's going to take, double it. http://www.nu-chrome.com/
