Chrome plating is very expensive,depending on what you want to have plated,be prepared to spend anywhere from $100 to a few hundred.

i don't think precision does anything cosmetic...it's all industrial stuff they showed on the web site

Price depends on quantity and size of items as well as prep time needed on it. Got a rad support, valve cover, rad tie down etc. done some time ago. Good turn around time too.

some of my parts are with him right now...but it takes him over 7 months to do a set of wheels.
it's not worth it to wait that long.
rather get it done locally
