Heheh I wish I knew how to chrome plate stuff... I would have ALOT more done.

The lift hook, shield, valve cover, strut bar, tiedown, prop rod, and all the bolts was approx $300 from a local shop.

Engine compartment looks extremely nice. Good job. I'd say that it's worth the $300.

Only if where you get it done they are complete morons and are drunk when doing it or something.

Chrome wont chip off unless it's done wrong and not taken care of.

Go to the Yahoo! yellow pages for your area and search for "chrome plating". Im sure you will find a few shops.

You meant woman, right?

Do you take the actual part you want chromed to the shop or do you just drive your car over there and they take care of everything for you?
