Dave:
I may not be able to tell you were in New England to go. But for sure
can tell you where NOT to go.
Stay away from...
Nu-Chrome in Fall River (tons & tons of horror stories from losing parts
to crappy work, looong wait times & high prices).
New England Chrome plating in Ct. Same stories as Nu-Chrome.
I have had first hand issues with both. IMO, Nu-Chrome is the worst of
the 2 but that is not a compliment. I know the owners son was trying to
turn things around for Nu-Chrome, but not much has changed as of yet.
I am in the powder coating business. I do have powders that are called
"Chrome", but IMO it really looks more like nickel plate rather than "show
quality" chrome plate. Nothing is as nice as a real good chrome job. The
chrome powder is a less expensive alternative. But I don't think anyone
would be fooled to think the chrome powder was real chrome.
I also have had problems with "The Bumper Boy's" work. And since then
I do not refer any chrome shops to any of my customers. As I have been
burnt by doing so.
I think the best advise you got, is to get a referral from a good
motorcycle custom shop & ask who they use. It seems to me, most of the best
chrome work is being done in Ca. Although I have no knowledge of the work
being done in Canada.
Bob
