Default Chromer in Mass.?

Hey guys,
First, I am a new member, so hi to everyone!

my brother and I are looking for someone locally, Massachusetts (especially South Shore or Boston Metro area) to chrome a rear belt pulley off an 05 vrod. Any suggestions or dealings with anyone?? Would really appreciate any help! Thanks!

Call Leominster HD.
I needed some chrome axle spacers for my Wide Glide's new front wheel
and HD does not make any. So they sent them out to have some chromed
and he told me they use Brown's but I have no idea where they are.
I can call on Monday if ya want and see where they are.

I looked a while back for a chromer and found a few places, I can't for the life of me remember any names but all I got to say is most places charge by the "lot" not per piece. At least this was the case for me and I called about three places that my shop goes through for other types of plating. I would recommend chroming anything you got at the same time to save money.

I sent my stuff the Chromemasters in TN...Great prices and fast turn around.


If you really need to stay local??? Try Nu-chrome in Fall River..I haven't used them, but i heard one guy was very pleased with some parts he took over there.


Also check Rahn's in Abington,..Not sure who he uses, but he has a whole side of the shop set-up with parts he has sent out.
