Chrome Plating. Where?
I want to have my wheels, swingarm and a bunch of other stuff chrome plate, but everyone in Wisconsin is apparently busy enough already. Anybody have luck with the chrome exchanges on eBay? Thanks

How far north into WI are you? Theres a couple places in Aurora, IL that still do it. Its hideously expensive now, the EPA wants to legislate it out of existence just like everything else.
Actually I only found 1 in Aurora that look like they do walk in small stuff like bike parts. I guess things have changed:

Luckily pretty far south the border is a couple hours away. I'll see what they say, Thank you. I have found a lot of places that only do small things as well. Hopefully this place is different

Ha, not sure that is lucky.
Black has become trendy, but I also wonder if riding costs are why Harleys have gone so black.

make sure the shop does harley and they have a good rep.
if is older stuff, double that effort, really never seen aftermarket chrome hold up, now the show bikes, yes but they rarely hit the road and a groomed extensively.
eye candy also attracts the not so well meaning.

thats a good point about does Harley. The Harley factory chrome does seem to hold up really well and doesnt match aftermarket perfectly. Should be close enough so long as the pieces arent next to each other
