I would go the plasti dip route, that way you could live with it for a while, and if you like it enough go with paint.
I like the chrome on my car, but my car is ruby red.

I have Rustoleum Peel Coat, which is basically the same thing. It's what I used on my front bow tie.

Black them out.
I'm not a fan of chrome on anything built after the 60's and really don't the little accent bits many makers put on areas like tailights, headlights, window trim, headlights, grills, front/rear facia etc. I think by keeping your exhaust pipes the natural metal and the aluminum brushed lips on the wheels there will still be a nice contrast to the black. The hints of contrast in a few areas will keep the car from having the "murdered" look which I was never a fan.
Of course this is all IMO...aesthetics are deeply personal.

Black looks better. When I ordered my C7 I went chrome wheels etc. Quickly tired of that and now everything is black except for the exhaust tips.
