Well Chrome masters called me today....they can't chrome plate the frame... But they are going to nickel plate it instead, along with all the other parts but the alloy VDC bars, they are going to polish those!!!

That's what he told me exactly, it would be a very long process and they wouldn't be able to guarantee the work after its finished. He said it would turn out better then I expect. He also said Paul from OCC is getting a bike done in nickel by them. If its good enough for him on a $150,000 bike, it's good enough for me.

it will look good in nickel and give it that old school rustic look.

I have been wanting to chrome my Quad for a long time now.
Very interested in how it will look in nickel.

Dale up there told me it would be hard to tell the difference and that it would look killer. He has done work for me before so I trust his judgment.

Thanks, it really was. Darell up there told me the nickel would look like chrome!!! In person, you can't really tell the difference. It has just a hint of gold tint.
