Don't know them but can recommend Frankford Plating in Phila, Pa. They advertise in NCRS Driveline - 215-288-4518.

Another good place for chroming is Advanced Plating in Nashville, Tn. Their web site is: http://www.advancedplating.com/ Their phone number is" 800-588-6686. Ask for Tom if you call them. Their quality has been excellent, the turnaround time reasonable and the pricing very much in line with what I would expect for their quality.
