Yes I did last winter...ordered a set of chrome wheels...they sent the wrong ones....then didn't have mine in stock...said I'd have to send my old ones and wait 3-4 weeks for those to be chromed......meanwhile I contacted SPS plating in Florida...and I have nothing but goo things to say...They shipped my wheels out within 30 minutes of me ordering them....on a friday no less.....I then contacted Chrome pros about my $1200 refund....then they're attitude changed..."oh we can send you someone elses order today"....sorry I said, just refund my $$$....took about 3 weeks to get my refund!! SPS had my wheels to my front door here in Northern Michigan in about 4 days.....The wheels were BEAUTIFUL!!!! I then of course needed matching chrome rotors....they shipped those out right away and didn't even charge me a core fee as they trusted I'd have them in the mail ASAP.......Give SPS Plating a shout....You won't be sorry!!

Telephone: 305-688-6541 or check em out on-line at SPS Plating

I bought a set of chromed wheels for my 95 FatBoy off E-bay. No hassles & great price. They look great.

'Highly recommended E-bay seller'

I've used them twice. Once with an exchange, once when they chromed my parts. The exchange was the fastest, but no problems here.

There was another thread here about a month ago discussing them; the consensus seemed to be: there exchange program worked well if they had it in stock. However, if you had to send in your part for chroming, there 3-4 week wait time turned into6-8 weeks.

I just used them to chrome my wheels/pulley and calipers on my Rocker. Don't know if this makes any sense but the chrome itself shines extremly well. Looks deep. Thats the good part. The chrome also has little specks in it. You really don't notice it on the bike but they are there. They also took longer than they said and the price was higher than I was quoted even though I told them exactly what I wanted. The excuse was " well, your rear wheel is wider than a standard wheel " I don't buy that because I told them what model I had and they said they had done several sets already. They should have known the width. Their customer service leaves a lot to be desired as well. Return phone calls never came etc. Would I use them again - I doubt it.
