I've had emblems done at AIH and was very happy with the work. Give yourself plenty of lead time though as they take a while. And they're not cheap.

My local plater here does a very nice job.7 days & $25.Just give them something they can work with and not all pitted to hell,and most any plater can do the same.

The one that I gave AIH was badly pitted, and had a broken mtg stud.

Courtesy in Villa Park, ILL did my Cragar center caps for a reasonable price. Guessing they could handle any pot metal pieces. Rick, are these the guys you're talking about?

Yes Tony,been using them for over 20 years as well as Jilson here in Woodridge.Both have done me well and given me good advise at what to look for when considering having something plated.
Preperation is EVERYTHING when you want to chrome plate.
