I have heard so many great things about ***** Shiny, that's the route I am going. Once I figured out how easy swapping out lowers are once you have the legs on a bench, I made the decision.

I found some pretty negative comments on Rick from ebay too easily so I removed him from my list (you can find negative comments on any of them, but it was too easy for him).


***** Shiny, Sport Chrome, and Bikes 2NV all had some very good reviews and were pleasant to talk to. In the end I went with ***** Shiny because of the time he took to talk to me about his processes. I'm sure the others have good prep and clean up processes as well, but Joe at ***** Shiny just impressed me more. If you're interested in getting your own stuff back Sport Chrome has a sale right now. It will take 4-6 weeks to get your stuff back, but you know exactly what you're getting. I almost went that route because my stuff is coming off a 1 mile bike, but the timing didn't work real well for me and my mechanic.
+1. I have sets from Ricks Plating and ***** Shiny. Both were exchanges and both were very good quality. I also bought chrome calipers and polished rotors from Ricks. Again the quality was good but the transactions were not without their issues.
