Default Drill and tapping Chrome parts

Does anyone have any advice for drilling and tapping holes in chrome parts? Is it better to drill and tap holes before chroming, or after? Does it really matter? I am sure if I drilled and tapped holes in parts to be chromed, as soon as I got them back, I'd have to at least tap the threads again. That's why I wonder if I should just drill the holes to size, for tapping, and then tap them when I get them back from the chrome shop.

What does everyone think?
