NGC 1521 and IC 4451 are isolated elliptical galaxies recently discovered in an XMM-AO6 pilot survey to search for optimal targets for X-ray studies of dark matter on the galaxy scale. We request modest follow-up observations with Chandra to map their dark matter profiles on the galaxy scale. These observations would be a key addition to the handful of elliptical galaxies which currently possess interesting X-ray constraints on their dark matter properties.
