Ditto to this suggestion. That's how I found the best chrome shop in the
area. The Harley and hot rod crowd know the best ones to use. After
all..... If you screw up too many Harley's you won't last long in the
business :-)

Hi!
I'm looking for a place to send my bumpers to have them re-chromed. Any
suggestions?

Hi Bob!
Suggestion: Go To your local Harley Dealer, as them if they know
a local chrome plating shop. Then go to an antique boat show & ask them
the same question. Then do the same for a Hot Rod Car Club. Now you have
up to 3 different sources to go & ask to see their work & you can decide
for yourself. I didn't feel right sending my chrome out to some chrome
platting place out of town.
Reason: What happens if it got damage in shipping or at the
chrome shop? How Are you going to prove who did what to collect? OR
Worst yet, if the part gets lost? & I'm only talking about BEFORE the
platting process. Isn't this the reason you decided to re-chrome than
purchase 'new' parts? What are you telling me, that you can't replace
the part? MORE of a reason why NOT to send out the part, right?
Now if you fine that one shop was named twice, then that should
tell you something, too. -Cosmo Kramer
