On my 1988 front bumper, I was wanting to find a chrome bumper instead of a painted 1. Any idea's where to start? I am also want to either chrome the grill or see if I can find someone to make a chrome insert. Thanks. Tony

On my previous coach -'84 S.W. I checked a few bumper shops and found one that had an exchange for mine. I had the plastic caps on the corners. They charged me the same for a chrome and my painted as a core as if I had a chrome core.
When I did the back there were none available and I waited for them to chrome my old one.........same price.

If it is a metal bumper, Call body shops and ask who does chroming.

If it's plastic.. I do not know

J.C. Whitney used to sell a battery operted chrome plating kit, Do not know how good (or bad) it was, never tried it out (never ordered one either)
