chrome plated genV
ok i know heat is the worst case for a charger but wow it just looks so dammmmm sweet. here is a link to a club gp site where this guy had his whole m90 vhrome plated.

is there any downsides to doing this?? i know that powdercoating will hold heat in but since plating is a sorce of metal wouldnt that sorta help disapate heat at least better then powder coating?? the price is not realy that bad. pretty much to get a used genV have it plated then ported would cost about the same as just buying a brand new one...... at least thats the way it was told to me.,..... anyinputs.thanks all....

wow that was FAST ya i know tommy is a member here. i just bought some gauges from him!! but i just though that the polish would be better then powedercoating. im working on my car 1000000% more now that my back is messed up. cant realy do anything with my bike... so im working on inter/exter and underhood.
silver why would you say you wouldnt do it??? would it casue that much of an insulation that it would acctuly decrease performance???

but that m90 is just polished right?? not plated. i understand any coating would hold heat in and will make it not a effecant. but if its just polished then there realy wouldnt be much harm going that route right???
the way i have understand this, the m90 was polished not plated since its alum. or was it plated. sorry if this has already been answered i just wanta make sure im 100% sure here.... thanks.
