Terry,
That must be why the German inspection institution (T"UV), which tells 
you (in Germany) what is allowed on the streets and what not, generally 
makes it very hard to get certain parts chromed. You won't find e.g.   
the American all chrome steels wheels there on the streets.

Cheers, 
        Gus
