    HELP NEEDED: Chrome shop information

    I need to find a place to get some parts chromed at a reasonable price for the 2014 Coa trike. Who has info on a good place to get some chrome work done?

    Here's a shop close to me. Haven't had a chance to use them. Also there's a place in Nashville that a lot of custom car and bike builders use. The guys on the Power Block shows on Spike also use Advanced Plating.

    Looks like the closest is in Hanover, PA. about a half hour drive from you.

    http://www.metalsfinishing.com/ Stambaugh Metal Inc Hanover, PA.

    The key search wording is metal finisher. All these outfits do much more than just chroming.

    You ain't lying Paul, I'm close enough to the border were I have had some of the best looking chrome done since the 80's... won't mention any names but there are a few that do awesome work close to the border on this side that's underground... I will say there is a mom an pop shop here in Tucson I used for my Tri-z build that did awesome work!!

    John, I did think about Stambaugh but I was pretty sure the last time I had them do some polishing they gave me the impression they aren't doing chroming anymore. Guess I'll give them a call and see what's up.

    Option to shiney show chrome

    Nickle chrome is slightly duller and a WHOLE lot less in cost. Perhaps ask them about that as well ?

    Pipe, motor mounts, all nuts + bolts, exhaust springs + hanger, intake boot clamp,,, all nickel chromed.
