pretty freaking nice,
who did the plating, and if you dont mind me asking how much was the plating.

I like it. The place did the exhaust springs too. The cost on it was $75. Crown plating out of Salt Lake City did it.

A few other places I talked to in SLC were way over priced too. One place said it would cost 450 to 600.

work of art !
Crown plating in  Slc also  did my a- arms, foot pegs, covers, and bumpers 20 years ago. they still look good.  I reciently had them do my stock swinger and motor mounts and cost like 100 bucks.  good work, good prices, just takes a while.

Looks great, but I've always felt the hand built sectional pipes look more wicked and tough in the "raw" or flat black form.

Single plated or Show Triple Plated? I know of places that single plate Chrome or Nickel for $50 - $100, but that deep triple jumps over $200 plus every time.
