Default Chrome plated brake and clutch levers

Your opinions please, nice or not?

Today I received some from an ebay seller and I've been sent chromed ones when the description said they were polished alloy. I've asked for a refund but had no response yet. They are quite nicely made and finished, but a bit too shiny for a satin and gloss black bike.

I'm just gauging whether anyone here would be interested in buying them because they aren't to my tastes. Off to buy a new clutch lever tomorrow

I can't see the chrome staying on. A bit like those cheap anodised levers you can get.

Too shiny for me too anyway.

Actually, the chrome looks to be pretty good quality, but it's just too bling for me. They might get shoved under the seat as 'get me home' levers.
