Where are you getting them done?

I asked around awhile ago and was recommended a place by 1QUIKWS6 that is supposed to do great work, here is what he said about the place when he gave me the contact info:

I have gone thru several platers over the years and have found him to be the best. I have referred several forum members to him that have had work done. He will chrome plate items by mail if you are out of state. I can personally vouch for his quality - you won't be disappointed. Talk to Don and tell him Jay referred you. He only does show chrome and actually uses a 5-step process with polishing in between each step.
If you want his contact info, let me know......


BTW, I updated my above post with my correct wheel weights. I thought they were heavier than that, but I guess not. I know my front tires weigh 25lbs and my rears 26lbs, according to Tirerack and I also verified it on my scale when I received them.

Nice looking car there Louis. I would love to be able to stick a 315 tire on a 18" rim out back of my Z. Keep up the good work Louis.

Price is 1995 with out shipping. Preorders will receive free shipping which is about a 140$ savings.
Thanks

Louis
Is the price of $1,995 include the chrome, or is there an extra charge for chrome?

Either way, VERY nice wheels!

Looks exactly like my CCW 505As
Nice price too, but you should really raise it.
