Hello everyone,
I need to re-chrome two Road Winder Harley Davidson aluminum wheels. Cal Chrome has a 6-8 week turn around, Speed sportchrome in Texas doesn't do wheels. Any suggestions from actual users for a decent chrome shop?
Thanks!

I checked Shiney's web site, then called them. Four week turn around. I feel comfortable with them so I sent the two wheels via UPS. 55 lbs. $190! I guess everyone has to make. Thanks for the info. I will post again with the results.
Thanks again Chopper!
Best,
Richard

I recently got chrome forks from ***** Shiny. He had them in stock so it was just an exchange. The chrome and obviously the prep work, is impeccable. I think you'll be well pleased.
