    They are chrome under that black paint. Chances are that when they were painted, it was because the chrome wasn't in great shape. Rough chrome can't be brought back without expensive re-chroming. You could try e-bay for some better ones. I powder-coated mine in black along with the headlight bucket, and they look great.

        Either paint stripper or a heat gun. A wire wheel or any other abrasive may damage/scratch any good chrome you have.
