What are peeps using to remove the chrome look from older Zeds?

i.e on chrome bumpers, outer door handles, door window frames and screen trims etc?

Are you just painting over the chrome/metal parts with black, or are you getting the metal black treated ?

Either or, does it last or whats the better way ?

Oh crap!!

I may have to re-think my engine bay. I'd planned on dark satin grey but I've never been one to follow trends.

Follow trends or what you like ?

I think the black looks good as does o.e chrome
But if the chrome isnt minty mint it seems as good a way to go ?
