Chroming small parts

Who does chrome plating of smaller parts at a decent price?

Go to a local motorcycle shop or two who does customizing and ask who they use.

A lot of the bike shops use

chroming is costly

I've used Bush Polishing out of California. Does a great job and is really reasonable

Most of the cost is in the prep. Even small parts can take a lot of time. I had my original antenna bezel rechromed because the repop didn't fit the fender. It cost me $50 but it looks and fits perfect.

fyi: i just had 2 vent window troughs (the piece the vent window sits in) done and the guy said $50 min for any piece. cost me $150 for the 2 troughs.

ok, thanks for help

Common problems with chrome platers :
1} "We did alot more work on the part than we originally thought so the actual price is double than the estimate do you want the part or not???" {window vent trim} Try getting away with that one in another industry...

2}"We ruined your part but if you send us another we'll still do it at the original quote" {a perfect, back window vent assembly for a 66 t-bird that got broke from a poor shipping box on the "ride" home... cost me 300 to replace}

3} "Sorry that's the best we could do" { Chrome potmetal lettering that was'nt pitted but the outer ridge detail was lost during the plating/polishing process}

These were some of the nightmares I've encountered over the years from various "reputable" platers.... I could go on but I'd just scare you more...
