Where to get chroming done.

[Lyrikz]

I want to get my rims chromed on my busa. I have had polished and dont want to go that route this time. I live in washington state and there isnt many good chrome shops around here IF any.

So, who has shipped their rims to someone to have them chromed? Who did you go with? How much did it cost? How hard is it to remove the bearings from the wheels?

Any advice would be great.. Thanks

Del,
I use SportChrome in California.
It costs $450 and they pay return shiping.
A shop can remove the bearings for you.
They do quality work.

Sweet. Thanks. My bike being the color it is, the black rims do it NO justice at all. Do you have any idea how much it costs on average to have the bearings removed and reinstalled??? Id like to have a shop do it all so i have no worries as im flying down the highway...

Here's the last set that he did for me.
Notice how well it's covered in the "corners" of the spokes?
Thats the hardest place to get the chrome.
His are usually covered well.
EXCELLENT chrome work!
