it wont explode la... the chrome will just peel off coz it can't stand high heat. My friend's GSR top cover is chrome, but slowly peeling off coz too hot. <_<

GLASURIT. Be sure to use the high-temp clear coat also.

soulfly, its hard to find high temp gold paint to DIY here. I have found Duplicolor at Ace hardware Mid valley. Mind you they cost a lot. RM30 per bottle. These you can use to paint the cover and even the block! I only found 3 gloss colors, ford blue, chevy red and black. U can use Ace 1000F high temp paint also. Same price. But cannot be used on block because it cannot stand engine oil so it will peel.

No point chroming engine since when your engine heat up your chrome will change colour or peel off....
