Hi Greg,  These guys are TV stars but they do have a business open to the public:
 
 
I hope that they can help you at a reasonable cost.   That's a beautiful Blue Vette!

I was looking for information on the same thing some time back and found this guy.  Not sure what it would cost but his work is exceptional.

There's none better than this guy. The price was $100 about a year ago.

 Hey Greg,
 I found this place in Ft. Worth that I'm going to have refinish my plates when the time comes. I bought my plates off Ebay, unissued, a couple of years ago but I think the paint, because of the age, is starting to get discolored spots in the off white background. This guy say he can duplicate the reflective paint as original also.
 His prices are fair, $70 per plate, and the turnaround is about 3 weeks
 Hope this helps.



   I know the voices aren't real, but they have some pretty cool ideas...
