The mounting legs of my mirrors are getting pretty pitted.

They look like chrome plated steel so I am afraid to abuse them too much for fear of blowing through the chrome into the steel.

Is it safe to polish them a lot or do they need to be re-chromed?


How about after market mirrors, like these:

Anyone know if they are all stainless?

The ad pretty much says nothing about it.

Working on the second restore of my blue 914...

Bought one from SM for the passenger side a couple of years ago. Good quality, no problems.
