I used an orbital sander to sand off enough chrome to get good adhesion. Got to plastic on the batt box and had brass showing on the head covers.
If the head covers are brass, they might look cool polished and clearcoated (brass, not chrome), if you matched the style in other spots on the bike. I always liked the look of brass instead of chrome.

I pulled the covers off, took them down to the powder coating shop. Picked them up 5 days later. If you do it make sure to have them put a clear coat on it, it will make it a lot more durable.
