Hi,

i want to re-chrome the original nose badges on my 1972 GMC Jimmy. Its the three letters that spell out "GMC" attached to the hood.

I have polished them up and they look pretty good under artificial light, but when i take them out in full sun i can see that the chrome is so thin in places that the underlying metal shines through.

Any recommendations for a good chrome restore / rechrome shop?
These pieces are so small that the cost of shipping doesn't bother me.

thanks for any advice!
