I did the chrome exchange on my lower front forks-rear wheel-pulley-axles-hand controls-m/c It was good chrome qaulity was clean no pits or scarring but I did have a peeling issue with a fork leg and they were not very helpful wouldnt really recomend it If I do another bike I am going to have the originals chromed. That way for sure you know at least your parts are good.

I used chrome that hog for a sprocket. They did a good job, no complaints. Fast shipping, but I did the exchange deal. Their phone service was a bit rude, but I have found it normal in Harley world. The part I liked is, they did a partial exchange for some other parts I had.

Did the exchange with Impress Plating and Polishing. Wheels are perfect. Price was good and service excellent. Very, very happy.

I have been using Atlas Plating in Houston, Tx. for my work on my 03 re-build, their work is great, shipping times and cost are better than most. Like ALL chrome work the real deal will be a few months down the road, how well does the work "hold-up", They have a price sheet on-line. www.atlasplating.com (I think).

That link took me to a listing of chrome platers, so I think it may be WWW.atlaschrome.com instead.

+1 for chrome pros.

Give them a call before you do something on ebay they will work with you on the price depending on what you are doing. I just did a purchse not an exchange and they shipped same day and the plating is real nice.
