Needing to rechrome my 65' Gtos headlight bezels, they have minor pitting and scratches.
Anywhere in ok good? Or somewhere I can mail them for a decent price.

I'm guessing cost for rechrome to be $150 each. Probably cheaper to buy repo's if you don't care about originality.

Repops are way cheaper than rechroming...

there never was anyone worth a plug nickle replating potmetal in OKC area. DC bumper has been shipping to TX for last 20 years. with the result, you get what you pay for...

Mine are in great shape minus a few pits which kills me. Ramos plating won't touch pot metal, diversified Plating I hear does but I haven't heard any thing be it good or bad about them.

I used these guys for the bezels on my 68, $95.40 each and they look great. They also did the grill surround and valence trim shown in the photo. I painted the black portion of the bezels.
