I got one just like that. I had it done about 4-5 years ago. I don't think that they do this anymore..... I could be wrong..:?:

Seems like they'd be using that process that Halicat was investigating, as I assume they're taking your plastic grill and then putting a process on it to add chrome.

They coat it with nickel, then copper and finally chrome I beleive......

I think that is where my grille came from. But I bought it from WildCat at Woodward three years ago. It is holding up fine so far.

DC - FYI,,,Custom Coatings did good work on the first grills sent him many years back,,,,,but as time went on, about half of the owners using them complained of unacceptable work.

Hey - they show an intake manifold chromed on there. I keep wondering about chroming the plenum.

looks like i'll have to start looking for a grill now....:-D

I just got an email back from these guys... heres what they said:


Hi Jim,
Yes, we not only chromed the grill but we did most of the interior pieces as
well. I think the grill costs around $250.
Turnaround time is about six weeks!
Thanks,
AutoInstruments Corp.

Cool :) if you chat with them, I'd be curious about price of chromed plenum.

[Kruisin Kat]

That is a really good price for the grill.

I like the chrome plenum idea too. I wouldn't mind doing it too if it's reasonable in price. The headlight covers under the hood and the radiator support too!

Hide the Credit Cards and the check book, I think Jim's sickness may be spreading, lol.

you are getting PMF...

" Prowler Mod Fever "

No worries, its not fatal...
as long as you are the one getting the mail first ...
if someone else gets the mail before you, complications could set in...8-)

The only cure is lots of Prowlin...because other than gas, its hard to spend anything when your driving....
