    uh huh. Sweet. How did the replating turn out? Mine are a bit pitted as well.

    I wanna strip and electroplate mine this winter.

    My '73 came with a chrome trim package - script on the back, winshield squirter hoods, and horn grills. Black trim does scream '73 but not always. Since the turn signal surrounds are black, and I liked the contrast with the Gran Prix white - I went black grills, and never went back. I am going to hold on to the chrome ones though.

    You did the right thing by going to chrome. It looks great.

    Rick, thanks.

    Shawn, plating went well. Nice and shiny now. I like them. Plus, the outfit that I used, did it on schedule. I like that.
