At work today a beautiful 34 ford hotrod w/ a LS1 pulled up and of course i checked it out. I saw something i had never seen or thought of: chrome plated coilovers. They were beautiful and i could not stop looking at them. Common sense tells me it would have to effect them in some way (stiffer, or the chroming process does domething to their integrity) but i dont know for sure and would love to put this on my list, can anyone tell me anything on this subject?

 

they're chrome so they look nicer. common sense tells me that.

 

i would think the "plating" would crack when the spring compressed. either that or it has a stiff spring that doesn't compress much

polishing might be a better option
