Default Best place to chrome wheels?

I have a set of the 09 28 spoke aluminum wheels that I have been thinking of having chromed. I have read some threads on here about chromepro's and seen mixed reviews, but haven't read much about any other reputable company that has experience with these wheels. Has anyone dealt with www.willyshiny.com ? Any help would be appreciated.

Just googled (is that even a word?) ChromePro's and found out they are only about 40 miles from my house.

Never knew they were even there, I will have to cruise over and check the place out in the very near future. I am interested in possibly getting the stock wheels chromed as well. Seems like the most reasonable way to get some decent rims. I would love some of the custom stuff, but way out of the price range right now.

I think that Willeyshiney is the same place as Impress plating and polishing, everyone I've talked to says they produce an excellent product. And they have a three year warrenty. That's where I'm planning on doing my wheel exchange for a set of the 9 spoke chrome wheels.

Had my wheels chromed at Impress Plating & Polishing. Great job with the best warranty I could find.

ChromeProsPlating did a GREAT job on my wheels. I sent them down in the winter, and had em back in about 3 weeks. Both wheels $550. It's been three years, and no chips or pealing on some other places, even the HD wheels. I couldn't be more pleased. I've read 20 or more threads talking about chipping and pealing within a year on some... Maybe I just got lucky, but I highly recommend them.
