if you do the local chrome shop route make sure they have done shock shafts or hyd.cylinders before so they will be able to centerless grind the shafts to remove scores and nicks.then they build the chrome back up.it is not just a re-dip in the chrome tank.

I sent them to race tech, I have no idea who they send them out to for re-chroming.
