LOL...no doubt eh Jay..Roll the dice.

$350 a side is Criminal......

 

[MarPar]

thanks for that lead Jay.

two things that suck bout this situation is 1) i have OEM bezels in decent shape (which is a miracle in and of itself!) that i want to restore. and 2) anything i buy done already may/may not match the argent paint i have, so i would have to sand/scuff it down anyways.

ARRRRGHHH!!!

i still have a couple more quotes to roll in, but im not holding out much hope that it's going to be much cheaper...

thanks gents

 

[Propwash]

Sounds like you're in a pickle chief.......

Kinda in the same scenario with a set of tail lights for my '68 net 500. Just throwing my 2 cents out there; Being it's just about winter and you have some time to spare, shop around a bit and see if you can find a more realistic price for rechrome? Either that or roll the dice on the PG set and hold off on the rechrome on the OEM till a better price/opportunity/funding comes along. Happy shopping Mar!

 

[MarPar]

thanks Will. ya for once, im actually jumping into project with time to do it, instead of scrambling at the last minute!!! lol

there are a few companies here locally that do chroming, ill just bring the pieces to them and see what they say.

what do y'all think is a good price for the re-chrome?? 100 a set? 200 a set?

 

[Propwash]

Man if you could get $200 bucks for the set, that would be a pretty smoking deal. Chrome work is a bit more of a kick in the chops than most would think; especially when it comes down to the intricate parts. Just my 2 cents here, but all the past dealings I've had with re-chrome, if you got all that done for $400 or under, you're doing alright.
