Depends if its just frame and forks?
A whole bike included trick nuts and seat clamps seat posts handle bars soon adds up!
I paid £150 but had loads of little items that take time you will be surprised a whole frame is easier to chrome than small items due to fiddley polishing and getting to hard areas ready for chroming!

I paid £25 to strip chrome and nickle (as I wanted to powder it) off a frame and fork set down in sunny Ramsgate...
