2 Big blasts of chrome engine cover in my black engine bay wouldn't sit right with me. Flat Black might match though.

Why ask if you already made your mind up. Also the engine bay needs some cleaning.

Get rid of the foam air cleaner. They catch fire fairly easily in my experience.

Go with a flat black valve cover. Save the chrome for when you rebuild the engine and you can clean up the engine bay really well.
