to give another viewpoint, I just had the following items done:
TR4 front and rear bumpers only, no overriders
TR4 valve cover (which, btw, is the same as for a TR3)
TR4 aluminum grill polished
TR3 aluminum kickplates (pieces behind the door at the front of the rear =
wings) polished
total price (cash discount) $525
sorry =E2=80=93 I didn=E2=80=99t remember to bring the tail light =
assemblies to get priced.
place is called Economy Plating, in Balch Springs, TX (Dallas suburb)
phone: 972-285-5112 ask for Jesse
email: economyplating@rocketmail.com
