Single/Parking Light Bezel Rechroming
« on: January 26, 2007 - 05:15:54 PM »
I just sent the bezels to CV Vacuum Platers in BC for re-chroming.  They quoted me $38.50 ea plus I'll likely have to pay a little extra because one needs paint removal.  I think Layson is making new ones but they are quite expensive.  I'll let everyone know how the rechroming turns out. The bezels are not highly visible but it will be a nice touch on the '73.

I can send pics later - not much to look at just a pair of bezels.  I did have to pay about $20 for return shipping via mail and another $10 as one bezel fell apart after they removed the chrome (cracked in a few places) so they sub'd another refurbished bezel that they had in stock.

They definately sound a lot cheaper than tuffrestorations (sp?) and talk about service. To replace the one with something that they had there was great. I will probably be sending them my headlight bezels and side markers. There wasn't anything on their site, but what about bumpers ???
