ISO Polished Chrome Engine Covers

[Greg_H]

My 2021 R18CLA came installed with “matted/muted” chrome for the front engine cover and side cylinder covers. I’d like to replace with polished chrome (such as those highlighted in pic, but variations would be considered), as found on the FE, but not at dealership prices.

Will buy, trade, and gladly accept suggestions, regarding third party providers, or discount sellers

I haven’t priced the chrome covers but prefer them to the alternatives. Good like finding them.

I notice now that the chrome pack is a £1500 option on latest R18's

They threw a lot of money at the FE's and now you have to pay a hefty price for it.

Why not have existing covers chromed?

Coming from the R1200C forum known as “Chromeheads.org”, it makes total sense to me for the big boxer to have chrome heads.
