(and Hi TeriAnne) With respect to chrome parts available from wherever - two observations. 1. The original chrome wasn't too good anyway, so perhaps the new repro stuff is just "authentic" in every

If it's a "real" 76 bumper - good luck! Depends on where the dent is. 75 and 76 TR6's had a freakin beam-o-steel in the bumper, and the repair would require grinding out the reinforcement to get to t

My bumpers are in being rechromed as we speak. This shop does a chemical bath to strip it clean, "pounds" out any dents, sands it down and then triple plates it.... in this case, it's nickel, nickel

Living in San Diego, we have to be really careful of who we chose to have chorme our parts. Some businesses are just store fronts. They take the parts across the border to Mexico for a cheap, flash c

A good plating shop will have its own machine shop and take care of all bumps, dents, etc. before replating. Luckily I live 15 miles from Librandi's Plating in Middletown, which gets business world

British Pacific, a LR parts dealer, has one way to handle parts when multiple sources exist. They carry two versions of these parts. One is the cheap part that is similar quality and price to the low
