The Best Chrome Shop???

I'm wanting to get my 09 uc wheels chromed. Where is the best place to get chrome work done at a reasonable price. Thank you

Glider,
I think his question was a recommendation, not a list. Do you or anyone else have a actual experience we should know about? I also would be interested in a decent chrome shop. Thanks.

I did a lot of research a few weeks ago and this place gave me the best price for the quality and I plan on sending a set of FatBoy wheels to be chromed...

Excaliber polishing and PLating

Understood

No recommendations here on plating. The look IMO on plating other than the factory stock parts is a gold color in my eye like Browns plating in KY. That's why I don't recommend plating, just my opinion.

Re: The Best Chrome Shop???

If it were me, I would buy factory wheels of a good brand and warranty in chrome and sell what you have on the bike rather than plating them but that's just me.

I drive ME nuts.
