Chrome chrome chrome! How how how?

Hey all! Does anybody know if there's any place that dips random things in chrome? I know they are scattered around, my friend got his bike done once. I was thinking of removing the body side moldings and having those dipped (chrome strip on a silver car) but dunno where to do that.

Hopefully there aren't any companies near you that will do it.

I'm not a chroming expert, but I'm not sure if you would be able to chrome the side molding. I took mine off, and it's actually a really flexible plastic/rubber. I guess if you can paint it, you can chrome it, but if your not careful, the chrome will crinkle and peel if you bend it too much while handling it.

Good luck!
