You can check with a magnet. Stainless steel has very little to no magnetic pull.

If they are the stock ones then they are polished up and are not chrome.

If the lowers are still stock then I doubt anyone went through the trouble to change just the uppers.

They're not chrome. If you saw them next to a chromed set it would be apparent.

Had the kit installed on wife's 08 Deluxe, that's the only way I know
