Let me just say, I love pinside when a thread is straight drama free advice 
Quoted from johnwartjr:I'd personally say anything that wasn't chromed from the factory But I think I'm in the minority!
Quoted from John_I:Totally agree. Would put black powdercoat on instead of chrome even on items that came chrome from the factory.
Ah, the purist perspective. I totally appreciate and respect that!
So I guess that's a no to the wood rails? 
Amen brotha!
Quoted from Pinmeister:Please don't chrome or powder coat the coin door. The only coin door mod worth doing is the custom door for Scared Stiff.
I couldn't agree more. I don't know why, but no matter how good the chrome job is, chrome coin doors just look cheap to me. (Just my opinon)
Yeah for sure, this is what it comes down to. I guess my hold up is, I don't know how chrome wears compared to the stainless. For example if chrome wears the same as stainless steel (ball trails and such) then I could just skip the step of polishing all the ball guides to a mirror finish by hand. But if the chrome chips or wears poorly then I wouldn't do the chrome. Same with scoops etc., I only want to chrome what makes sense in terms of durability vs. ascetics.
