The title says it all. UVIRA, in case anyone doesn't know, is a company in Oregon who will coat your headlight reflectors with a deposited aluminum and glass finish, much like a telescope mirror. I had heard they were no longer doing it, and then within the last few weeks someone posted that they had just had a set of reflectors done, so apparently that was false. I can't find my way back to that thread. I am not even sure it was on this forum, but it probably was.
The phone number I have from years ago doesn't work. Does anyone here have the number or can you point me back to that thread? Thanks.

Out of curiosity sake, how much do they charge for that service?

I was charged $ 30 each including return shipping several months ago. Remember that the reflectors need to be nickel plated before being sent to them so that is part of the cost.

That's why I was asking. Plating shops are thin on the ground in WA, but I am currently in PA. I plan to drop these off for nickel before I return. Cost of the nickel plating is yet to be determined. As of yesterday, I was quoted 75 including return shipping for the UVIRA part of the deal on Pontiac reflectors. I believe they are identical to Chevrolet reflectors, but off the top of my head I can't remember which model Chevrolet. Probably 1936 Master.
