Brake Booster Rebuild / Replate

I'm looking to have my OE brake booster rebuilt and re-plated. I'd like to avoid replacing the original with an imported booster that is obviously not original in appearance. Any suggestions for a rebuilding/replating service? Has anyone had experience with brakeboosters.com? Thanks.

I recommend Booster Dewey, he rebuilt and replated my 63 Starfire booster, looks and works great.
