Back in about 2008 or 2009 Graves Plating in Alabama plated our 35 grill for $975.00. plus we had shipping to and back BUT I didn't feel that was too unreasonable for plating. Granted, the grill was a nice straight grill, no rust grill BUT still a fair price I thought. I guess my point being, it "MAY" pay to shop around, I have a lot of stuff on our 32 that was done by Advanced, had to send a couple pieces back as we were not satisfied with the outcome AND they did "replate" them NO problem (and maybe because we spent $8000 for the total chrome bill) BUT they did not handle the job as asked and it cost us "several" months of extra time. I also deal with them in my business for "industrial" plating of some materials for a customer AND I am not a fan of Advanced.......NOT a very friendly NOR customer service oriented mind set in my experience.
