Atlanta Area | I told my dealer I was thinking about chroming my grab handles. He said I would need to have them spray chromed as the handles were made of plastic. I asked him if he was sure and he said he had replaced one that had broken on a customers bike.
Can anyone confirm?
If they are plastic, I will just paint them midnight cherry to match the rest of the paint... If they are metal, I will have them chromed... |

Ruskin, Fl | They have plastic covers on them. I painted mine black. I don't think having them chromed is an option unless you spray them. FYI they are a bitch to get off. |

Rockford, IL | Could always try shooting them with MirraChrome from Alsa Corp. http://www.alsacorp.com/products/mirrachrome/mirrachrome.htm While I have never messed with this product myself I have heard of quite a few painters playing with it and some are using it to do some pretty wild things. |

Reno County, KS | Keep us posted on this. Some of chrome stuff they sell is already plasti-chrome, so it wouldn't hurt my feelings too much to throw another peice on. |
