When I was checking on chrome plating my LE wheels it was going to cost me $1000
plus shipping the wheels to CA and back. I settled for polishing them which was still about $1000, but no shipping charges. I like the softer look of the polished wheel as opposed to the chrome plating.
I pick up my twin chrome plated tow hooks tomorrow morning and it was $100 to plate both tow hooks and the 4 mounting bolts. Plating is much more expensive now than in the good old days when I was showing cars.
