Does anyone know of a source for metal chrome vents that measure approx. 3 5/8" wide at the open end, 5" long overall. I have a total of 8, 4 on each side. Replating is going to cost me around $75.00 each here locally. Is this a good deal? Sounded high to me but I have never had anything replated before. Help is much appreciated in sprucing up the '91 Blackwidow,
tom

75 each sounds really high. In hot rod country (SoCal) I paid around 20 each.

www.acplating.com did very nice work

I am happy to here 75 sounded high, I didn't want to pay it anyway! And word around the campfire is that if they existed for purchase, Poodle would know!

Bob, I appreciate the website. Amazingly enough, I have a customer on Mt. Vernon Ave in Bakersfield. I will get with them to see who they know. As often as I get to California, I can just take them in my suitcase and drop them off if they are that reasonable.

Thanx for the help!:biggrin:

they might still be available but they'd be unplated new bronze castings... so either way you'd need to chrome them...
