The Chrome on my projectors chrome ring thing have come off, any way to fix it???

It just disappeared when i touched it.... (doing the LHD convertion)

Thought about 1/16 model build kit car's chrome paint.... but dont want to ruin anything...

Last option will be just paint it black... will that work/be cool? (anyone done it?)

that's for model cars and adheres to metal.

you could dry using Mirror Chrome Vinyl? HERE

well technically you add some heat and it'll be as pliable as you want it to be...

but I meant just the leading portion of the shroud where his chrome is coming off (pretty falt- would need trimming)

I would say paint.. i like the look painted JDM's
