Chrome shop recommendations
I'm trying to locate a decent chrome shop In Arizona. I want to get my grill and bumpers redone, but can't find anything local.

Re: Chrome shop recommendations
Right now, I'll take recommendations for a shop anywhere around the southwest. I have a 36 3 window coupe that I need the grill and bumpers done.

Re: Chrome shop recommendations
The place in Ogden is outrageously expensive. I’ve gotten quotes from them a few times and it’s always really high. The last piece I contacted them about was a hood hinge for a 36 pickup. They quoted me $800. I sent them to a place in Idaho. They came back perfect and cost $116. I’m sure Ogden does good work but I would hope so by what they charge. Just my experience.

Re: Chrome shop recommendations
Ogden wanted 2700.00 to plate my new '33 Ford windshield frame.
I bought one from Trautwein for about 700.00. |

Re: Chrome shop recommendations
Not only is Ogden charging outrageous prices but I use a rod shop for some of my work that built a very high end 59 Chevy sedan delivery which required a large amounts of plating. They used Ogden and a lot of the pieces made a couple of return trips the get quality plating. High prices don't always mean a quality product.

Re: Chrome shop recommendations
Satisfied, no doubt.
A '33 dash gauges trim surround. Almost too rare to throw it in the mail; i.e., Fed Ex et. cet. Thank You - Last edited by highbeams; 02-08-2024 at 12:38 PM. Reason: edit |

I have used them to re-plate both bumpers on my avatar. We even got a tour of their facility. I certainly didnt realize that the process was so complex. I certainly recommend them. They are the only plater in Idaho. Hope this helps. |
