Default Recommendations for powdercoating/chrome

I'm going to take the DS down this winter for some powdercoating and chrome a few parts as well. I need to find a reputable place to send my parts. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for the reference Cam. I will check them out.

Anyone else have a place that they've sent parts to be pc'd or chromed?

I've got a guy in Michigan who will cermakrome (ceramic coating) my parts. How do you guys think that would hold up? Thinking of doing this to the upper arms & subframe, powdercoating the rest.....

I'm not 100% sure but I think that sandbomber had one of his frames nickel plated. You might check with sandbomber.

I am trying to start up my own powder coating business right now. unfortunatly i do not have anything big enough to do a frame with right now. I may be able to hook you up with some small parts though. I am currently working on an 250 quadracer. I don't know of any reputable companies right now though that could do a frame.

look at my photo page and you can see before and after. i got mine done for 160.00 out the door at peninsula custom coaters. they did a great job. the frame was a mess when i dropped it off and i got back unbelievable results. the place is in williamsburg va. one old guy who does all the work and he did not even know what a atv was.!
