durability of chrome?

[blingsta]

How durable is chrome against heat? does it discolour at all? im thinking of buying a chrome rocker cover but worried about what the heat might do to it!!

It goes blue when it gets hot.

I heard that the chrome will flake off when used as a rocker cover!

Wouldn't go down too well in the engine

[blingsta]

Doh !! forget that idea then !

Right, dont know if it makes a difference to the above answers already given, but ive just found out that they are crystal beam, polished then galvanic chrome ????

Is this still no good against heat?

[ed325i]

There are people who have the whole engine/gearbox done so it can be done.

[blingsta]
