I have used King of Trim, California for restoring the grill, bezels and interior trim on my 63 Polara and the grill on my 65 Coronet. Marcos does excellent work - the grill will probably run $1000 to $1200, bezels $75 each. Not sure how his prices compare - I am thinking he is on the high side - but the work is 1st class.

I would be careful with "king of trim." I bought a '64 plymouth grill last year and was very disappointed with it. I ended up sending it back for a refund. I have seen some very nice work from King of Trim (marcos), but what I was sent was very very poor.

I bought a King of Trim grille and headlight surrounds for a 65 Belvedere a year or two ago. When I got it I was a little disappointed because I could see some fine sanding scratches that I thought should have been polished out. When I compared it side by side with my original grille (which was still really nice, but the anodizing was fading) the King of Trim grille absolutely blew the original away. It was kind of pricey, but compared to OE quality, it is miles ahead.

I did mine by hand and I can assure you he's NOT overpriced!

Kinda like bodywork. Until you've done it yourself it's easy to think you're paying too much.
