Default Dash panel re-plated in nickle

Is there a source to get my old dash panel re-plated with correct finish. It is a 1930 Tudor round speedo. Thanks

Pauls Chrome...Penn. but you must talk to Rick.... He will be at Hershey .look him up and drop it off or ask for a price on the part.. Not cheap but you will know you have enough Nickle , or chrome on your parts... triple plating.

Pauls was the shop that ruined some of my Cabriolet parts. My triple hinges came back such that they would not fit together. They ground the top irons down and looked like swords. This after I called the lead guy 3 times and sent them 8 pages of basic directions like how the hinges needed to fit together so they could work.

After sending parts back twice and paying thousands of dollars I have rare parts that do not look right and sort of fit together.
