    Chrome Plating shops in N.C.

     



    I'm looking for a good chrome shop somewhere near Jacksonville, NC for my son. While he was overseas he had me buy him new 20" Boss (Black Chrome) rims & tires for his 2004 Dodge Rumble Bee. Five days before he came back to the states I had the tires & wheels put on his truck & then took it out to a friends house who drove back to North Carolina so he could have it when he got back on base. Unknown to me the shop who mounted the tires scratched a couple of the rims. When he got back to town he talked to the owner of the shop && they admitted it was their fault & said they will take care of the problem. Since the rims he has are no longer being produced his has to be repaired. My sons leave time wasn't long enough for shop have them & get them back on his truck. So the shop owner told him to find a chrome shop near him & that they will pay for any cost to have them repaired.
    Does anyone know anything about Chrome East in Concord,NC or knows of another chroming plating shop that does good work near Jacksonville, NC....joe

    I wish I could help you but I do know Keystone does chrome plating and they did some bumpers for a shop I worked at and it was pretty nice. The one in Concord I am sure does good work but I have never used them. There isn't many chrome shops around here though. I will see if I can find one that has a good reputation for doing good work and great customer service.

    There used to be one in Winston-Salem called Stradford Die and Metal Finishers. You may try to locate a number for them. Not sure if they are still in business or not.

    See if you can look up a company called Airborne Coatings. I know for a fact they do headers and such with the jet coating in chrome or polished and they do them inside and out and it's very good but I thought they did powder coating and chrome work too. I just remembered that today.
