Hello, I will sold my hotrod to find money to finish my ford Customline. I think that the body of the 54 will be painted in few months and my big problem is with my Bumpers an Grill (in bad condition, lot of rust). I don't know if it exist in US a cool links to find beautiful chrome parts for our ford ? There is in otherwise the solution to make a new chrome on my parts but it's very expensive in France ! And my back bumper have a big bump on it :-/ A beautiful paint need perfect chromes ! Thanks in advance !
Chroming can get pricey here too,because of environmental regulations on the chemicals also be very careful dealing with platers here there has been a lot of bad feedback on a lot of them doing shoddy work.Some guys have gotten chrome work done in Mexico as it is cheaper and not regulated.Here are some ebay finds:http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=1954+Ford+bumper&_pgn=2&_skc=50&rt=nc
The same price and often bad work in our state to I know this video Jeff, there is the same technic in France but I'm affraid about it on the Bumpers, it's like paint and I think that it isn't as strong as chrome. I will choise this tips for the emblem and small parts but if it's possible I choose chrome for the bumpers. The way to find bumpers in good condition on ebay can be a good choice to ! Thanks
