    SWB door handle & 4 screw horn grille chroming in Seattle

    Hi Folks, looking for a bit of guidance on having my precious handles & grilles rechromed. I read somewhere (and now can't remember where) that they were made of metal that's difficult to work with and easy to ruin? I need to be able to entrust them to someone that'll do 'em right.
    Thanks! Peter

    Most expensive, too, but worth it for rare bits like this. I also use Electrofinishing in Kent for more pedestrian stuff like bumperettes.

    Thanks for that. I was referred to Electro by the bodyshop who has used them for 10 years or so.
