1965 bumpers

I am trying to slowly restore a 1965 442. My front bumper is straight but very pitted. I am in western nc. Any leads on a good bumper restoration/chroming business?

Tri-City Plating up in Elizabethton TN, but if the metal is pitted bad, they'll have to do a lot of grinding to clean that up. If you can get a better bumper, you'll probably be better off. All 1965 F85/Cutlass/442 bumpers are identical if that helps.

Tri-City sometimes has core or finished bumpers in stock for more popular cars.
