Default RE-chrome a rim

Hi All,

Need your advice on where to send my rim to have it re-chromed. have a 2013 CVO Breakout with chrome turbine wheels and the front rim has had the chrome wear off on the leading sides of all of the turbine spokes. Need a recommendation on where to send it to have it stripped, re-polished and re-chromed.

Thanks in advance

find a publication called "Hemming's Motor News". Its a big classified and advertising thing for guys into classic cars. Lots of places listed that do chrome restoration. Be aware, its gonna be EXPENSIVE. Might just get new wheels.

Maybe call Joe at http://www.willyshiny.com/wheel-exchange/ he may be able to help you, not sure if he does one ofs ! Chrome I've got back from him, has been number 1. Locals may chime in for you here, maybe post in the "Florida Crew" area
