I used Millennium Technologies for my 525 resleeve. They did a great job, and I got it back pretty quickly.
Perhaps I have a dirt bike addiction?

Why not just replate them?

Millennium gets their sleeves from LA, if I remember correctly.  Sandblaster would know for sure.

to be quite honest i dont know much about replates. i have an o.e.m jug. hasnt been sent to have any kind of work yet. to me the o.e.m jugs are sleeved with crap. so as far as replate i dont know. maybe you could explain a little about that to me. also one of the jugs has some damage that will have to be sleeved .i believe anyway....

I would replate personally, and it takes a lot to be unrepairable. Millennium tech welded some cracks near ports and replated mine. Plating has come a long way and is very good now. Check out millennium tech they can help ya out with everything
