Aren't they anodised already? They look like they could be, the welds being the same finish and colour as the rest of the frame.. and they seem to be good at resisting corrosion. Mine have been wet and burried mud plenty of times and are still in good condition when cleaned again... not like bare ally would be at all....
Chroming tends to flake and then water gets trapped under it and the whole thing starts to look awefull, not to mention the flaking bits being razor-sharp
If I'm right and they are, we could have them done in another colour for decorative purposes.... I was looking at having my engine cradle done anyway to re-cover the engine mounts where I have modified them....
I have a spare subframe I could send in to get done, as a sample just to see.... if anyone else is interested I'll post the results....
