I see you're in Vic. Try the shop in the link below. I have not used their services, but I've heard they can do it.

I remember an old issue of Street Machine that had an article on plastic chroming, though I don't recall the company name - might have to dig through my collection and see if I can find it.

yeap ive had the same issues, its driving me insane, no one wants to do it.
Im getting my mags polish, but center caps are plastic, and its going to look ghey if I dont do the caps aswell.... Does anyone think that chrome center caps will match polished rims? I dont know what else to do!

Ok, I'll try again! (I was certain Carrolls did it, but oh well)
Try L.A. Metalizing P/L 1 Dennis ave Cambellfield 03 93089100 If they don't chrome plastic, I admit defeat!

lol..thanks charlie.
I tried that first place you said, just for my rims, and he said that no one in VIC would touch it. Why I have no bloody idea.... And then he said finding someone to do my mirrors and center caps will be even harder...but ill give that new one a buzz

BJ Try this place. I know it is in NSW but maybe worth a try. They do car parts and other things including plastics. I got the name from a chrome repairer when I asked about some dashboard parts. I must admit I have not gone to them yet. Hope this helps.

If anyone likes the stuff Modicoat does, I can vouch for their service and quality, as I had some custom interior pieces done by them and they came out tops!

Custom Chrome in Nerang on the Gold Coast do chrome plastics. I am having my console strip done now with them. They are pretty good too, they have asked me to bring my console up after they copper coat it first to check its fit as they can be a bit tight. 07 55965553
