Title: Where to get Chrome work done?
Post by: pinned250r on February 25, 2014, 10:15:43 AM: Where is a good place to send a swingarm, stem, and pipe to get chromed for an affordabl price? The stem will definitely need it on next build, but debating having the rest done pending cost.

Thanks guys!

Post by: pinned250r on February 26, 2014, 02:19:31 PM: [MENTION=24]croat1[/MENTION] Joe, that is by far the best price i have seen! I could probably scrape up a few parts to get done(kickers, brake pedals, motor mounts etc). But definitely swingarm and stem. My local prices were
$300 for swingarm or pipe
$75 for stem
at http://www.chrome-worx.com/ in Cadillac MI

Post by: croat1 on February 27, 2014, 03:42:14 AM: I'm going to try some "black chrome" the next time. I'm not sure on pricing for a pipe. I bet the stem price would be the same maybe less. Colin, pm sent.
