Default Places to have parts chromed

Thinking of having my windshield frame chromed, anyone know of any places in the northeast? Would rather drive the parts there instead of shipping!

Thanks
Jim

Not worried about rust? If u decide to go powder coat, I just looked into marine grade powder......it won't last 2 yr then chunk off like everything else I've ever done.

Jamie - thanks for the offer but I haven't even pulled it apart yet! Have you had anything done by them?

Warehouse?? You finally bringing the beast up?

Rust? The frame right now is painted aluminum and it's origional. The glass needs to be re blacked out so I figured I would pull it all apart and redo the frame too. I can't make up my mind though if I should just do black again or if chrome would look good!!

This red scarab has the same windshield as mine and that looks pretty good chrome but it might be because the boat is red!

Not sure how it would look on a white boat?

Chrome always looks good when it's new! Couple years later well.....
I brought the boat up Tuesday night. I'll be hanging the gimbles and hopefully the steering this afternoon
