Anyone know of a plater that is cheaper? This quote came from Bumperboyz................I would have thought they would be much cheaper............Ive seen their chrome..............not the very best.

I just had those exact parts chromed. I had a bunch of parts from a couple different bikes so I don't know the exact price but I would say I had these parts chromed for $200 total. I found the quality to be quite good. All the parts were in ok shape but they did have a few dents. No dents when they came back.
I had them done by RC Classics

Ronnie Brown at Brown's Plating in Paducah, KY might be worth calling too. Their quality is first-rate.

I had Leonard's in St. Albans, WV plate a Dunlop rim for me and a pair of CB160 mufflers. His prices are excellent and his quality is very good. Does not do show (aka triple) chrome. He does decorative chrome, which is what Honda used.
I had Ronnie Brown rechrome the rear fender brace on my CL77. He does triple chrome, which includes a layer of copper that is used to fill in any imperfections. He's not cheap, but his quality is superb. He actually does a much better job than a new Honda ever had.
regards,
Rob
