Chrome plating isn't cheap, and many places who do it are lucky to stay in business with the EPA breathing down their backs.

Whats he charging you do do the case for your alternator in chrome?

The guy I use charges me $80.00 to do the polishing of the aluminum case, and chrome plating of the misc. parts. Thats COST, not marked up retail. He hates to do the cases, because of all the little tight areas they need to hit. Cant remember how much time they have invested in a alternator case, but not nearly as much as a M90.

Done a few snouts only for quite a few people who had painted or custom made engine covers they like to leave on at shows. But the ugly snout was too much for them. Polished snouts:



One was done for John Oliver, if you ask him, I'm sure he could show you a installed picture. I don't know if hes on here yet or not, but hes still on the "other forum" I think. His engine bay is amazing. His car got my vote at Branson.
