Ogden Chrome Summer Sale

Ogden Chrome Summer Sale
Hey gang,
Ogden chrome is doing some work for me and since this is their slow season, they are running a special:
$150 off any order of $300 or more!
These guys did my front bumper and a pair of bumper guards and they came out beautifully. They're currently doing my rear bumper and a pair of door handles and I cannot wait to get them back!
Call 1.800.453.3007 and ask for Tito. Tell him John C. with the 76 Olds 98 referred you if you don't mind. They are very happy to help out customers who bring them business.

Hey Randy. Tito only mentioned that it was a summer sale because they tend to be slow in the summer months so I don't know exactly when it expires. Give him a call and ask. Just please return the favor and tell him I referred you.
Good luck and thanks!
Good luck and thanks!

Hi Steve, best thing to do is just call Tito for pricing. They look up pricing for every part individually so I really couldn't say. They're in Ogden, Utah but they cover FedEx ground shipping both way so don't worry about shipping costs.

Hey guys,
I'm glad to see this is already getting a good response. Their prices have gone up since they did my front bumper a few years ago (I'm sure that's the same with just about anybody). As a returning customer, I was able to have my rear bumper and a pair of door handles (with thumb buttons) done for just over $600. They do now have a 5% EPA fee that they have to pass on unfortunately but still, it's a pretty good deal.
I can't speak for them but I would like to think A body bumpers might be a little less expensive than C body...maybe??

Good morning, so, FEDEX just dropped off a big package at my front door. As I had posted earlier, I had a couple of pieces that needed to be re-chromed, and I called Tito to set it up. I sent them a Driver Quality front bumper and a Hurst Shifter Handle less than 3 weeks ago, and was able to take advantage of their Summer Sale. All I can say is WOW! The bumper looks BRAND NEW, PERFECT! Shifter handle does too. If you need chrome work done, OC has highest praise!

My rear bumper and door handles are on their way back now and I cannot wait to see how they turned out!

So I got my rear bumper back from Ogden the other day and it looks AWESOME! I have a bit of work to do before I can mount it but it is going to be such a great update to the back of my car, I cannot wait. The door handles came out awesome as well and they're already on the car looking pretty.
I don't know exactly how long they're running their sale but call Tito for information.

My guess is they put more time in the prep work for show quality vs driver quality
#20
I believe most all chrome plating is a 3 step process, with Chrome being the last coat. Show Chrome is dipped multiple times to insure 100 perfect coverage of the piece, with no pits or blemishes visible. Street Chrome is dipped only once. I had Street Chrome done on my stuff as it was'nt pitted, just a few small dents. The difference in price is a couple of hundred $$. They like to have customers opt for the show chrome as there is a lot more profit margin since it costs next to nothing to dip it again. (IMO).
#21
Oh ok. Mine is definitely show quality then and I couldn't see anybody calling it driver quality. How much of a difference in price was it and did he say if there was much difference in process? Maybe it's only double plated instead of triple? Or maybe they just don't go as far to make sure it's perfect. I know that they go over the whole bumper to make sure there are no dings, scratches, etc and also make sure it's overall straight.

That makes sense. You said you were really impressed with yours too, right? That's really nice to hear that driver quality is still really nice. How much was your bumper?

Yes, my bumper looks brand new. My bumper was $450 (reg price $600), and $60 for the shifter handle.
As mentioned earlier, they cover all of the shipping costs both ways.
Tito told me that they have original molds for all of the Olds bumpers, and can straighten almost anything.

I would like my front and rear bumper done for my 76 cutlass, I think the shipping costs would be very expensive from Toronto Canada. I wonder is its worth giving him a call John?
Thanks Eric.
Thanks Eric.
#26
At least within The States, they pick up the shipping to/from their shop but I don't know if that would apply going in and out of Canada. What's the harm in calling, right?
Call 1.800.453.3007 and ask for Tito. Tell him John C. with the 76 Olds 98 referred you if you don't mind. Let me know how it goes.

I talked to Tito about this when I was discussing sending in my bumper. He explained the difference between show and street is the time and effort put into the prep and build up of the copper layer. If you have a nice straight substrate, the street chrome will look as good as the show chrome. If your bumper requires straightening or welding he said the show chrome is the way to go. Cost of the show chrome is 25% more than street.

I just called Ogden they said $775. per bumper for my 67 442. I told him about RandyS, a member here who just posted 2 days ago his 66(basically the same bumpers i have) 450. for his. First he said RandyS was mistakenly quoted the wrong price and they lost money on that deal. Then he called me back and said RandyS's price was a "June only" sale, and he didnt want me to think there was false advertising goin on. But thers still a "summer sale" at 10% off for both bumpers done at the same time.
Im callin bull $hit on that, but guess i wont be using them. Just call before you ship. By the way this price was not for show chrome, it was for street chrome!

Just talked to them again after reading oldstata's post reply. The price has now gone down to $650. per bumper with 10% off of that, + 5% EPA fee =1,228.50 out the door. He said he didnt remember telling me 775 each but he was a fast talker LOL. He said it.
Good deal?

I have been using Tri City with n complains as of yet. They setup at Carlisle swap and you can drop stuff off and pick it up the next meet. You can ship bumpers to them as well. For show chrome they charge 500 per bumper but that does not include shipping. Ogden makes it pretty convenient by picking up the bumper. I guess it is a matter of choice and price.

Then you count shipping at 75-100 both ways don't sound bad as my quote had no shipping for my 65 and only one way shipping for the 64 bumpers
To me looks like the charge a small shipping fee still not a bad price for quality work
#38
Not sure what's going on with the prices being quoted by Ogden Chrome. When I talked to Tito, in June, he mentioned that the $150 off of $300 sale was during June only (he called it the June Sale). When I called back to actually book the order, Donovan took my order, and at first acted like he didn't know anything about the sale, then said that they were told that they could not offer it, it had to be Requested (which I of course did). The regular price for Street Chrome at that time was $605, show chrome was $805.
#39
This is not cool at all. Tito told me it was a summer sale...summer only starts at the end of June so I hope they're not backing out of it already. He told me to have people call him directly. Maybe nobody else knows of the deal he gave me and Randy or maybe he got in trouble for discounting too much???
I'll call him and try to see what's going on. I don't like how this is being handled, especially with my name on it.
