Here's what they look like now. Not very pretty! I got them with that "custom finish"(orange and gold!) already applied. Tweakers...

There are a couple of small cracks in the primary cover. I would do the repairs before sending it up for chrome.
Shoot me an estimate. Thanks!

id like to know how much the diverter and bowl would be aswell, but not chrome, just nickle. oh and the bowl cover aswell. toddnjuzz has a great shot of the bowl, diverter and cover on his thread about set back pumps. take a look at that and youll get a good idea of what we are talking about.

would it be much cheaper for just the nickle plating? seeing there is no chrome or polishing needed, i would think the labor would be far less.

It's probably cheaper to buy a new set! Chroming ain't cheap!

My chrome was not done in a third world country, just by a honest guy in jacksonville texas. The name of the shop is Eagle Plating. 903-589-0858. He chromed my pump bowl, place diverter, steering fin, 5 guage bezels, 7 switch bezels, steering wheel adaptor, all knobs, and misc bolts. $500.00. plating has been done over a year and looks great.

:eek: Thats cheap. We've been using Airline Plating in Houston, to do engine and suspension parts on my buddys show truck. If I told you he had 10,000 invested in just chrome, that wouldnt be to far from the truth. I'll have to tell him about this place. Where is Jacksonville, Texas located.
