Default Polished rotors

Can any of you guys recommend a good set of polished rotors? I did the forks, and started the rotors, but they are not turning out like I want. I have seen some on eBay that are not too expensive.

I also am going with a chrome rear pulley and the plater has polished stock roots I am considering, but I am thinking of going with another design I have seen.

Any recommendations are welcome.

Listing your bike and if running stock wheels might get you closer to what's available.

If you have a metal shop anywhere around I would contact them and see if they could polish them for you. It's a snap if you know what you are doing and have the proper equipment. Those who do that for a living can fix you right up. If you take the leap to chrome it's over and done with, no polishing every time it dulls on you. Chrome is KING in my garage but being the chrome ***** that I am, I may be a tad biased.
