Question about RX-2 Chrome
I'm filling out a little RFQ to get my bumpers rechromed and can't recall how much of the car is chrome (it's been apart that long!) From what I recall, the headlight rings, marker light trim, front turn signal buckets, RX-2 and MAZDA logos and the bumpers (pre-74) are all chromed. I think the glass trim (windshield, rear, drip rail, window moldings) are all stainless steel, as are the wipers and the grille trim.
Can someone verify for me how much of the car is chrome and how much is stainless? Also let me know if I've forgotten a piece.

Grille surround and windshield trims are stainless. It looks like the door trim below the window is chrome, as well as the drip rails. Any idea if this is right?

In looking, I've actually found a few 'mom and pop' shops around Atlanta. There's one near me that's pretty reasonable, but I need to have him look at my bumpers and trim.
Because the bumpers are so thin, vendors assume that they'll be damaged and need a good bit of work. Mine are in good shape, but I won't see him until next week. I'm considering digging the mirrored face out of my mirror to have chromed. He'll also polish the stainless window surrounds and chrome door handles (they're in great shape). I'll let you know when I find out.
