Nice. Nothing establishes your credibility more than a well turned, intelligent phrase. For the OP, Paul's Librandi's and Advanced have good reps here on the right side of the country-calling them will give you a good estimate of costs. Over on the HAMB, there are quite a few discussions about platers in mexico, but the quality seems to vary

FWIW, I don't have a show car and bought polished SS bumpers from Mac's. I figured I would rue the day I bought chrome the first time I saw a spot of rust or a scratch. 8 years and the SS ones still look new. A '30/'31 complete front bumper from Mac's is $295 chrome and $347 stainless. I doubt you could rechrome your bumpers for anywhere near that, but a good chrome shop might give you a better job.
