I am looking to rechrome my bumpers, and was wondering if there was a place close to ware i live that would do it, or if there is a better way to get them done. i live in minnesota. i have a 1972 rallye charger.

All I can say is AVOID "THE BUMPER BOYZ" like the plague.  I speak from experience when we had our bumpers from our 71 Buick GS convert done.  I am sure others will chime in about them.

Are you anywhere near Brainard MN?

If so Id recommend Keystone , Thier Show Chrome is very nice and thats who I ALWAYS use with great success. They provide a lifetime warrentee also  :Twocents:
68 Charger R/t white with black v/t and red tailstripe. 440 4 speed ,black interior
68 383 auto with a/c and power windows. Now 440 4 speed jj1 gold black interior .
My Charger is a hybrid car, it burns gas and rubber............

Brainard isnt to far away, sounds like a good place, do you know how much they usally charge, or how long of a wait there is normaly? also do you have any contact info for them?

Right now is the worst time to take them cause they are usually swamped with show chrome this time of the year, But as far as price id GUESS you would be looking at about 750 for both bumpers
