Quick question Greg, did you need to prep the hardware at all?

Here's a topic that mentions another place. WGCarbs.com - - Vintage Forum - - browns plating anyone?

BrownsPlating.com - - 1010 Krebs Station Road - - Paducah, KY 42003
.... We created the desire for chrome in the motorcycle industry back in the late 60′s and early 70′s when the era of the chopper was born. In the early 70′s we developed a way to chrome plate aluminum when the industry said it could not be done....

Browns is the best place i know of for plating aluminum since most places cant get it to stick,steel isnt nearly as hard to do with decent results. :)
