Don't go with cad plating...it goes real dirty after a while. Especially the 'gold' finish. I bought a Nickle Cobalt plating plant and did all the suspension parts. I could have gone the total show polish finish but I would still be polishing stuff. I decided for a glass bead finish and all the bits came out looking like satin stainless steel. Alas the supplier of the plating plant got way too many questions etc on his email so he folded his business. I've found a supplier for the anodes but when the chemicals become depleted I'm stuffed.
