I had my bumpers straightened, un-dinged and replated for almost that
much. Between strengthened environmental laws and rising commodity
prices, I wonder how much longer we'll be able to have plating done...

I just took my bumpers and convertible windshield headers down to a chrome
plater in Ft. Worth to get a price comparison between that and reproductions. I
was thinking if it was anywhere close I would of course stick with the
originals. They quoted me $700 for the bumpers (the rear needs a little
straightening) and $150 for the headers. A quick check of the catalogs
confirmed that this is WAY more than repo's.
Are they nuts, or am I? Is it worth shopping around at today's fuel prices, or
should I just settle for repo's?
