Yeah just to be clear I'm not trying to chrome plate it, too expensive. Heck even if it was a perfect steel part chroming would be too expensive.
Trying to get it vacuum metallized like an OEM grille.
Check this out, see the chrome strips around the lower valence and grill openings ? I hand made those out of aluminum and had them chromed and it cost $450 with tax for 4 little strips of aluminum. Not to mention took 7 weeks.
I always wanted to chrome that fiberglass bumper too but it looks okay in silver paint.
