Default I may want some chrome

I've been thinking a lot lately about adding some chrome to my bike. This is pretty much against how I wanted my bike to look when I first got it but the more I think about it the more I want to do it. I only want to do some on the engine. Basically the HD chrome engine kit. Rocker boxes, cam cover, transmission covers, and outer primary. Everything else will stay black. Am I nuts, do you guys think it would look good or am I messing with something for no reason. Opinions needed and welcomed.

A mix of black and chrome in a sea of all black bikes looks good. My wide glide has **** ton of chrome and Ive been adding black to offset.

Black and chrome is never the wrong combo.

That's why I bought a FXDC and I still had to spend anther $150 on chrome to get it the way I like it. If I had your bike I would go through $2000 in chrome the first week I had it. But that's the way I like them, you need to make your bike look the way YOU want it.
