Re: chrome plating ??

When I worked at the H-D shop, I sent a lot of stuff here. They did mostly bike parts but Im pretty sure they would do auto stuff too. Nice work too...

Re: chrome plating ??

Then,there`s the west coast,great lakes,Gulf coast,and that`s just in America.
I`m going to take a wild guess...Jersey?
I meant to ask your locale.You`d want to consider shipping costs/risk of damage.And,it`s best to be near enough to go there if need be(problems,etc.).I had parts done right down in Baltimore before.We just bought some beer and rode around asking,"Where da chrome?Who got da chrome?",finally we stopped at a spring shop we had dealt with and they pointed us in the right direction.As you might tell,that was a long time ago in the cruisin`n`boozin` days when you didn`t get shot for stuff like that and the EPA didn`t force alot of shops out.

Go to this auction number on Ebay 270098869489 . This is a guy that specializes in Powger Coat stuff. I'd link this to the page but dont know how. If someones wants to explain to me how to link pages and sites to our site I'd appreciate it.
