Not as much with chrome, paint, or powder coat, and you can repair any nicks, etc, with touchup paint if you go the power coat or paint route...
I hear what you're saying. I polished my lowers on my super glide because of nicks and liked it very much. At this point these are still perfect but when they do start to look bad is when I would switch them out.,

Awesome looking ride! Street Glide is on my short list (Actually it's the only one on my list) for my next one, still a couple of years out!

Once you add more chrome, you'll never stop.

chrome forks
chrome starter cover
chrome stabilizer link
chrome engine mount bracket
chrome headbolt covers
chrome oil cooler cover
chrome engine hardware
etc.

Then you'll get bored and powdercoat everything.

Did you get the chrome plated apparatus that recalsamines the fortiscube and keeps the distribulator in optimum corelation with the harmonic disruptor during recessification?
