I believe I read somewhere his rate is around $150.00 plus shipping each way meaning $200-ish or more to refurb my old hinges. From what I have been able to find out (from the internet) I believe I can get new stock GM hinges for $75-ish each and re-pop ones for less than $50 each. I have no doubt that refurb guy does great work but $200 is more than I'd want to spend on putting new rivets in my old hinges.
