I’m in need of someone to restore my set of 60s VW dealer frames, but my searches only lead to broken links. ☹️
Has anyone here had theirs successfully restored, or know of someone who does the work?
I spoke to a fellow at the Madera Spring Fling who had his license plate frames restored by a person whose name I immediately lost. 😡
Let me know if you are aware of, or have used someone performing this service.

Thanks in advance. 👍

Ill look to see who I used about 6 or 7 years ago. They are not as cheap as you would expect.

I tried to reach Charlie at Sihilling months ago but got no answer. Is he still there, and doing plate frames?
