Default Can someone chrome some small plastic parts for me?

Hey guys. I'm in need of someone to chrome a pair of headlight shrouds for me. The issue is, the material is NOT METAL, but made up of plastic, glues and bondo.

They're in the process of being built, but in a week or so i will need someone to chrome them for me. I know there are tools to chrome plastic (and objects that are non-metal) i just can't afford them to do it myself.

Here's a picture of what they will look like. Except they will have areas that are of bondo and glue. They're small; the inside hole is 2.5" in diameter.



Can anyone chrome them for me? My max budget is $100+ shipping...

If you'd like to help me out, please let me know

The big question is whether the glues you are using will stand up to the plating bath.
