I have recently been acquiring estimates for all the chrome on my car.
Most estimates list the bumpers between $90 and $110 each for a quality
chrome job. This would include a copper base (sometimes not necessary
on steel, but definately on pot) followed by a buff, then a nickel coat
and buff, and finally a chrome plate and buff. This is generally the
most durable and best looking type of plating job. There are other
that are better looking and more expensive for concours finishes. Hope
this helps.
