mrsnstr Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 How much would it run to rechrome the grill on my 70? I called one place and he quoted me $1000? As for the bumper he said in the 350 range. Is this a good price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Richey Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 You'd be surprised what a 40 year old 70 Grille looks like detailed out with some silver paint and a new emblem. As long as the chrome is still there, a good polishing does the trick. If you're wanting..."perfect" then have it rechromed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrsnstr Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 What kind of polish do you use? Silver paint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADMAC Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Look in this forum under "Best to clean Grille?" and that will kind of give you an idea of what you can do. The grille I bought wasn't perfect but after a good cleaning and detail I thought it turned out pretty good. I used black but I the think correct color is Argent Silver. Jack (PapaCoop60) just redid his and I believe thats the color he used... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Richey Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 What kind of polish do you use? Silver paint? I used the Silver Wheel Paint you can buy at a parts store. As for as polish, any good chrome polish will do, just keep rubbing on it, and it'll bring it out if the chrome is good enough. The "Mad-Dog Chrome Polish" from Luttys Chevy Warehouse really brought my grille out more than the regular liquid stuff I use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
