    I know there is probably a thread on this elsewhere on here but I'm gonna ask anyway. Who does chrome plating. Like on engine components, etc.?

                      I have heard from some customers who were not exactly satisfied with their workmanship. That was a few years back, however.

                        yea the original owner was pretty close to closing the doors and fell behind.Until the "financer" of the operation took over, about a year ago and has caught up since and hasnt had any problems yet,from what i've heard

                                It happened around july-august. I brought a valve cover in to get chromed and they took one look at it, and said. "We don't have the proper machines to buff around the letters so we wont do it." so I told them "just chrome it, buff what you can, and I'll deal with the rest" then they said "we won't send out an unfinished product." And that was the end of the conversation.

                                  Im sorry to hear that but they are pretty picky on what they choose to do and what not to do,but i know they had the machines to do it when i worked there and it was a lil before july.
