Default Smog Diverter valve restoration (Plating)

I'm collecting parts to set up a Smog system and the Diverter valve I have has the Cap Painted "Gold Cad" and The Muffler Painted "Cast Grey"

Is there anybody out there that can perform a Plating restoration so that the Cap Is "Gold Cadmium" Plated and the Muffler is Grey Phosphated plated correctly?

Thanks

I do not believe Steve does the plating on diverter valves as they need the can taken off to be plated properly. Contact Bill hodel in Ohio he replates them and does an excellent job.

Bill Hoedel has an exclusive contract with DD to restore Divertor Valves...

I've heard of others being able to restore the Yellow Zinc DiChromate on stamped steel front piece, without removing it, but I have no contact info.

Bill Hoedel's "guy" removes the piece, replates and reswedges zinc piece onto housing. NOT certain what is done to internals????
