1968 barracuda grilles (restored)

I think what he's asking is. Does the chrome shop actually anodize the aluminum parts or did they chrome them? Since you mention them as a chrome shop it does sort of imply that they are chromed. I know that some of the parts are actually die-cast chrome parts but some are plastic and some are anodized AL. I've also seen a thread here on FABO where some people are clear coating their AL trim after polishing instead of anodizing.
