I'm pretty sure chroming is expensive. Thaty's why I'm trying to find one
that isn't too expensive and does good work.

A while back soemone mentioned that there was some powder coating that
simulated chrome. Is that expensive too? Anyone try it?

Any DIY chrome kits available? (doubtful)

Thanks.

To all,
Chroming is expensive and a repaint and decals will also be
necessary.
For those of us who love our bikes (like Rich) but don't want to
put museum money into them, what alternatives exist? I know some have
painted the "chromed" area and outlined with striping, but I like the
shiny stuff.
Has anyone tried a chrome or alumnium veneer? This might also
cover dings.
What about chromium paint?
Thanks

I'm thinking of getting my tank rechromed and repainted and I'm
hoping
someone in NY/NJ can recommend an outfit to do it.

Anyone around the Ft Lee NJ area?

Thanks!
