Need Some Opinions On My 870 (Cosmetic Only)

[srnm]

I'm thinking about changing the bolt and the shell lifter on my 870. No real reason, everything works great. But i'm thinking that it might look nice if I change those parts to chrome (Everything is Flat Black), but that may be to much shine for me, maybe something more flat.

What do you think? Also where can I get these parts? Has anyone done this and have any pics to share?

Thanks!

a buddy of mine has a 20+year old 870 and all the paint or bluing or wahtever is is is worn off and the bare steel can be seen. it looks like it's stainless or chromed or whatever and looks vey nice. my 870 is new (couple years old now) and it's starting to wear and looks nice too. i'd say just remove the paint on your existing parts. they are very durable, but if you're worried about rust then maybe a clear coat of some protective something... sorry i'm pretty vague but it's hopefully something for you to think about.
