Has anyone dealt with an ebay seller on exchanging stock rims for chromed? I would like to hear how the deal and rims were. Been considering this myself but unsure of these sellers.

 

Yeah, I have a set of black powder coated and chrome turbine cut wheels from that seller. Had 'em since December, but I haven't gotten around to putting them on, yet. They look pretty nice. Deal went well. The seller is called Impress Plating & Polishing and you can visit their website here.

 

Flitz... use Kleenex really good until black, wipe it off with a rag and then use wax.
I tried alot of different products and this one makes the rims shine like new.

 

Gettem powder coated or chrome plated.

 

can always send them our way for powder!

 

Are the rims clear coated from the factory?

If not...1000 then 2000 grit sandpaper, they'll shine better than chrome

 

I picked up a set of OEM chrome wheels on e-Bay a while back for mine. I kept looking and looking and finally scored them for $400 plus $50 shipping. No swaps. I sold my originals for $300, so was only out $150.00. Keep looking, they do pop up from time to time.

 

When I bought my '08 softail, the wheels needed major rehab. Previous owner never touched them. I used the scotch brite pads starting with green, then red-brown and finally gray. Finished off with Al. polish. They now gleam.

 

Look for a chrome house in your town..........it would be expensive to ship them to have chromed. If you know anyone that works at a machine shop they will know the good plating houses in your area.

Obviously my vote is chrome also!
