I used wersternchrome.com out of Fresno, CA. They charged me $135 and that included shipping the wheel back to me. Plus my wheel was factory chrome which requires more work to remove the old chrome, so yours maybe be cheaper. They also give you a 2 year warranty which most other only offer a 1 year warranty.

Was that for one wheel? Or was that for a whole set?

Unless you find a place where you can just take them yourself, I'm fairly sure it won't be very cheap... You can count at least 10-15 bucks each way for shipping.

You might be better off with just selling the current ones and buying new wheels...

Friend of mine sent his Viper wheels from PA to CA to be chromed and all he told me was that it wasn't cheap...

Might want to post your question to the Texas section, too. There are plenty of guys from Austin and surroundings. I'm sure they'll know of somebody.

Later!
