My local resource gave me the distinct impression that my asking them to do my bow chock last year was more trouble than it was worth. And they charged me $160 to re-chrome the bow chock. Would you all be able to recommend me with some vendors who you have had a positive experience with, someone who I can mail the two pieces two and charge me a fair price? Much obliged, Matt

I have not used them yet, but plan on sending a few items to them. http://www.frankfordplatinginc.com/nginc.com/. Kevin 1988 11' Super Sport, 1987 Johnson 15hp.
