Hi

I'm in West Chester, PA and want to see about getting my chrome bumpers redone. Anybody know a local shop that does a good job? Thanks

Thanks Qarl

I know you said "local", but I think that it's in the relative area (drivable) from Philly.

i think they are in MA not NJ.


never used these guys but they are near by (up rt 100) and have been around for some time. I have been by their shop and it looks professional

Let me know if you use these guys or have any feedback about them I may need to use them also.

You're right... don't know why I thought New Jersey.

Pottstown's perfect, I just hit their website and I'll go by this week to talk to them. Keep you posted, thanks

Years ago I used Martin's Metal Specialties up in the Tacony area of Philly for rechroming a 50 Studebaker. They've advertised for many years in Hemmings and a few other resto periodicals. I thought they did too much grinding and too little plating and polishing to fill pits. Original pieces were pitted, but edge definition and letters were good before plating, rounded edges and indistinct lettering after...
FB, Where in West Chester? I'm in Downingtown, and work up above Exton.

Also found this in the same area....don't know anything about them but you may be able to get 2 quotes while you're up there.

I worked with Eddie Howard

Pottstown Plating Works does not do chrome, they referred me to this company, got a quote of $450 for a rear bumber rechrome. They said it would be 3 to 4 months wait time until they could do it.
