The plastic trim is not "chrome", just shiney silver colored plastic. The paint adhears well to it.
You will need part numbers. May have to go to your dealership and have the parts guys look them up for you. Once you have a part number, Surdyke is one of the better places to buy on-line parts. About 20% of retail.

I will probably try to paint mine. If i make a mess looks like maybe a couple hundred loss total.
Lord know i spent more in a casino with nothing to show for it.....lol
If you look up Jamie's bike at laidlaw hd on YouTube he did up a heritage with painted trim. Looks dang good to me.

Lower rocker covers on a sporty. The screens on the brake calipers on a touring bike and such.
Scuff with some sandpaper, clean and paint with engine enamel. This is my painting history lol.
Always turned out better then expected.
On the plastic part would you just spray it or lightly scuff. I would think just spray it. Thanks for any thoughts on this.
