Those replate companies are around....I was looking at some dash panels and stuff at the Pate swap meet years ago that was done by somebody in the Dallas area. Haven't seen them lately, but their samples were beautiful.
Tom..when you find that info, post it in the thread I've got going on services, and I'll add it to our links list.
I can do this, I can do this, I, well, maybe

Thanks Rich
I have a very good plater locally.. I know they do a lot,but never inquired about plastic plating.
I am NOT interested in the "spray on chrome"
