Kevin,
I had my '74 rear bumper chromed in November, I had no damage to it so no
repairs were necessary, it cost me $295.00. The town I live in has no
chrome shop so the place I took it to sent it off (to El Paso) to be done.
If you live in a larger town you might get lucky and find someone local that
doesn't have to ship it off, might save a few bucks....
Good luck
