Chuck Conway in MA also refinishes the blue style emblems. I had 2 or 3 redone and they look very good to me. They don't have the dull nickel finish, but still look very good. I think the nickel will dull over time. He only charges about $50 to $55 each to do each emblem if you have the emblem to restore. I sent him a couple pretty rough emblems with chunks of blue material missing and they looked very good when I got them back. I believe Karla, who does an excellent job I have heard, but charge much more - time and material at about $200 to $250 per emblem. If it is a fine points car to be judged, Karla probably the one to use.
