It might be cheaper to buy the repro????????? Then sell yours on the bag.

a quality chrome job,on a decent top will run at least the cost of a repo. i really like the repos from mancini...i know the guy who makes them,and they are really nice for around 7bills,imho.use yours as a wall hanger of sell for $$$

I paid $100 to have a 6 pak lid triple chromed,....you'll incure the chrome stripping processs, plus depending on the chrome finish you desire,....I'd guessimate approx $350-$450....

This is for a real car that I am missing the air cleaner for,the dome pictured is one I saw for sale on the internet.I have an extra base so I really only need the dome.A new one from mancini is $629 so it almost makes originals not worth messing with unless they are perfect.
