I called Lincoln industries this morning and no luck. They do not do anything for individuals, only companies. I am waiting on a return call from KW to see if that is something that can have done as a one off.

Thanks for the update. Wonder if we had a sample of the color to take to another shop that may be willing to give it a try?

I’m planning to contact a couple of companies early next week. I’ve been traveling all week and having to catch up today.

I'm very interested in how this turns out myself.

So far, not good… no real update other than Khrome Werks did not have a solution to get parts coated.

Thinking of replacing the heavy breather on my ‘22 CVO RG with the HD Ventilator when I add the lower fairings.

Update, I did find this place and there is a chance they did the OEM plating, but will not do plating for individuals.

This place is very close to me. Want me to go over and give them a stern talking to?
