Plating shop

Friend of mine wants her stock 20" RS rims chrome plated.
Ok. Whatever? I told her I'd ask here.
Needs to be in the DFW area.
Can they even chrome aluminum?

I used Pulido Plating (don't know if i spelt it right) in Mesquite. fantastic work, it was 180, but one of my wheels was damaged and so i only needed one chromed. I do not know if they discount the 180 rate for 4.
