I found this on the archives from Mike Klepp, he didn't list the resource 
but sounds like what you need. Mike ya still got this guys info handy.

A couple months ago, I solicited input on sources for license plate
restoration sources.  I got several helpful references and finally selected
a
gentleman here in Texas, since I had TX plates to be restored.  I got them
back tonight, and they look great!  He welded holes, straightened dents,
stripped, and painted them (base/clear coat).  He is a retired guy who does
this more or less as a hobby.  He also has a nice Model A F**d.  If anyone
is
interested, contact me off list for his phone and address.  He charges $35
per plate plus shipping.  He also can duplicate a plate if you are missing
one.  I don't have a web site, but I will e-mail a pic if you would like to
see the finished product.  I have not connection to this guy other than
being
a satisfied customer.
