Barrell Chroming

I am looking for a shop to chrome my GT-S barrells. There are a few shops around my area (dc metro area) that will do it but they ship it out. Ive been told by a few places that they only do it in California. Dont know if thats true but anyways... Anyone have personal experience with a shop that does it in house?

1. You should never put chrome on a G35

2. You will have to send it to Cali. Chroming is a chemical process and very few places actually do it.

You want to chrome the inner barrel and not just the lips right? That would look cool. I been wanting to chrome my GT-S's as well. I know places in Socal do chroming. But how much are you getting quoted for the service, if you dont mind me asking?
