if your talking about actually dipping your wheels then got to victoria wheels. Run a search on the internet, you should get it. If your talking about actually get a set of wheels.....they may have it. Give it a try

For 600 you should be able to get it done. There is a place near me that does it for like 140 a wheel. But this is the east coast so it doesnt help much but just saying that you should be able to just make it by on your budget.

try this place http://www.wheeltechniques.com/index.html I had a wheel repaired by them, they do good work. Their site says they also do chrome plating. They're in San Jose. Hope this helps.

PLEASE stop calling it "dipping"; the correct term is electroplating. Here is how the process works:
