    Where to get plating/chrome done?

    Where do guys doing restorations get things rechromed? I called a few shops and they only want to do fresh clean parts? Where do guys take parts off old cars to have them rechromed? How do I prep the parts if no one will do the whole job? I am rebuilding an old Rupp mini-bike I had since I was a kid. I think originally the handlebars, rims and other parts were simply clear zinc coated. I would be ok with that, if I can't find anyone to chrome them.

    Any suggestions? I would prefer something on the south side of town.

    Thanks.

    I make crashing look good

    It is the Soldier who salutes the flag,
    Who serves beneath the flag,
    And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
    Who allows the protester to burn the flag.

      That's what these guys do:



      They're not on the south side, but how many trips are you going to make?
