There was a guy on the site that was doing them or getting them to Mexico or something. Anyone have a budget source for rechroming?

Rick,
What about the place in brainerd? I also hear there is someone just south of you, I can find that out if necessary. I also have a rear I would like done, maybe we can pack them together.

Sight unseen both $1k each. I used to use Northstar Bumper when I had my shop. The place between me and the metro I think sends them to Northstar. 6 to 8 month wait time.

I'm in the Twin Cities too and have a front and rear that need rechroming as well. I haven't dug into it locally at all, but count me in if there is any benefit in a larger order.
