In an earlier blog I drastically under estimated the cost of re-chroming the bumpers. I had thought it would be a buttock clenching $350 each. It turned out to be a colon cleansing $475 each. Apparently the cost of nickel has gone through the roof. I am currently lying down in a dark room softly sobbing.
PS. I also took assorted door handles, the original mirrors and some chrome trim that had to be re-chromed. Needless to say the handles and the mirrors came back with me. I can't work out how it is cheaper to buy reproduction parts than get the originals re-plated. Has the entire world gone insane?
