| I've never used them but these guys have been around a long time. I was thinking of getting some work done there but never got around to it. May be worth giving them a call. They're in Wauconda.

| That looks great, I'm willing to bet it would cost a pretty penny to have that done. | |

| F that! That's way too much money for some damn chrome! I bet Joey can paint it shiny silver for a whole lot less! | |

| Tons of labor involved with the intake manifold.. That's right in line with what PPP charges and MirrorLook does a better job, as far as I can see... | |

| It looks damn good but I don't see paying that much for it.. Painted looks pretty good IMO.. Unless you have a bunch of chrome stuff under the hood.. (firewall, ABS cover, radiator covers and so on) | |

| Let me know if you find something to coat it with that keeps it from dulling after a little while. | |
