Any motorcycle shop will have vendors for chrome. Why not just buy one already polished. The $$ will most likely be similar.

chrome plating looks brighter than event he best polishing job. plus, there is almost no maintenance to keeping the chrome looking great. I already have my mind made up on chrome.

i already tried that. I live in a small city ( <100,000 people) and there is not industrial friendly zoning. oh well, I was hoping someone knew a good shop I could send the manifold to.

Your "small" city has more people than my whole state. I'm sure you can find someone to do it. Or, you can buy my blinged out Kinetix SSV manifold off me for a low low price of $650 shipped
