Getting the inside chrome treatment, Chroming the ashtray

I'm going with more chrome trim in the interior. I'm going to try to get the ash tray cover chrome plated. I was thinking if I could buy a few and have some done ,I would have a little stock in case someone would like to have a chromed ash tray cap .I could do a core type trade + some $$. Photos to follow

^^Thats a rip off lol

A couple years ago I was doing the Lowrider thing and I would have payed $30 tops for something the size of the ashtray. Hell, Ive payed less than $150 to get parts about the same size as the ashtray plated in 24kt gold.

Maybe try heading over to the lowrider forums (layitlow.com) and see if they know of any other platers near you
