Default rear pulley life?

just curious if anyone out there has had a rear pulley wear out at 42k miles? my rear pulley seems to be loosing its chrome, wondering what kind of life others are getting from theirs?

Those belts are tougher than a 3 dollar Wal-Mart steak...dont abuse it or build a 150 hp monster and you'll be fine.
