The plating was done by AIH,use to have Northstar do our plating but after the last 3 sets we sent needed to be sent back 3 times and still werent to my liking, they said they wouldnt do any more for us.These cost much more but are absolutly perfect. the other option was Finishing Touch and they were 2500.00 per bumper so that wasnt an option! I have seen the chrome from the other platers and its garbage so non of them an option.
