JR - at that price I might want to have mine done. They are not too
bad but are showing a little wear. I've got a small ding in the rear
one. Will they straighten it?

The PO rechromed the front bumper, but left the back original. I would be
interested in doing the back bumper within the next year.

If you can't get them chromed, why not use SST wheel liners (simulators).
They look the same, are even less maintenance and cost less. The secret is
finding a dealer who will sell half sets because what you need are 6
simulators for front wheels. Last year I found a dealer near Denver who
sold me a set of 6 for $300. If you're interested, I could probably dig up
the receipt with his name and number.

I am definitely interested. That has been on my todo list for some time. I
assume they have the means to do some minor scratch repair.
Keep me in mind,
Jerry
