The chrome inside there is special. No rattle can will do the job. Search for vacuum or plastic chroming

If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...

You need to have it chromed I had to have mine done. Just realized you're in Norway and that place probably won't work. Try to find a plastic chrome place in your country I guess.

Try to find a plastic chrome place in your country I guess. Can't you just sand it down, plastic primer, adhesion promoter, then duplicolor chrome or blackout chrome kit? I recall doing this to my friends headlights and it worked perfectly, but he wasn't doing it for the reflective purpose since he had HIDs and a clear lens. |

This in silver might look fairly close, and it's meant for plastic: http://www.krylon.com/products/colormaster...rimer-metallic/ Either that or pay to have it vacuum-formed again/chrome plated. Being it's for the projector you could paint it whatever colour you'd like.
