Default Q: What type of business would be able to coat plastic with a chrome-like surface...
ala, the Audi rings look? I would like to investigate adding a similar surface as we have on our Audi rings (and most any auto emblem) to some plastic pieces, but don't know where to look...

Thoughts/ideas?
