The following is a brief description of our standard remanufacturing process:

  1. Your bumper is straightened by machine and then by hand.
  2. Your bumper is then ground.
  3. Your bumper is then polished by machine and by hand.
  4. After cleaning, your bumper is electroplated with a nickel strike. This strike tank allows the copper to adhere to the metal.
  5. Your bumper is then electroplated with copper. Copper is a soft metal which when buffed, fills in any noticeable polishing lines.
  6. Your bumper is then buffed by machine and by hand.
  7. After further cleaning, your bumper is electroplated with nickel. The silver color you see on a "chrome plated" bumper is actually nickel plating.
  8. Your bumper is then electroplated with a Nickel Durni solution. The nickel Durni allows the chrome to grip the bumper so as to decrease the chances of peeling and rusting,
  9. Your bumper is then electoplated with chrome. The chrome is a clear sealant.
  10. FINALLY, your bumper is inspected, wrapped and shipped back to you!

Show Chrome requires the same remanufacturing process as our standard repairs with the follow additions:

  1. Show cars are electroplated with copper several times in order to reduce or eliminate noticeable polishing lines and blemishes.
  2. Many older cars, even well maintained cars, develop rust spots that create pits in the metal itself.
  3. Often these metal pits must be filled in by welding silver into the inclusions
  4. Many small polishing lines which are insignificant on a truck or standard vehicle are examined more closely on cars in show.
  5. Many older cars have delicate thin parts, including die cast pot metal.
  6. Many older cars have cracks in the metal requiring show cars to have parts welded.
  7. As should be expected, show chrome prices are higher than our list prices.

  1. All our parts carry a 1 year limited warranty.

  2. Our price catalog reflects our standard remanufacturing list prices.

  3. Our Show Chrome pricing may require us to see the parts first.
