Re: Re-Silver A Rear-View
When you get the price you may want to have a glass shop cut you a new one from stock.

Re: Re-Silver A Rear-View
Why make new ones when original mirrors are not that hard to find?

Stained/etched/discolored etc to where such shows thru new silver |

Re: Re-Silver A Rear-View
I recently had Alchemy Mirror Resilvering do one for a fine point care, they did a good job and it came out really nice. It was under $50. Steve mentions the link on post #11 and that is pulled from our "sticky's" at the top of our forum. I sent them pictures of what I had first and they were able to assess whether it would come out good or not, before I sent it to them.
