They have a minimum charge of $135 IIRC, which is what I paid plus return shipping cost. This is a great way to go. Kaehr also does phosphate coating (Parkerizing) for door strikersm body bolts, hinges, etc., which also return looking new.
It is an amazing finish. I couldn't believe it myself. The best stuff was the moveables/assemblies. I didn't take my hood release apart, nor did they, but the spring/hinges/handle everything just looked fantastic. Ron and those guys were fast and reasonable. Can't recommend them enough...Your stuff looks great Pete.
