Neofreak... There's a thread somewhere on the other forum in the interior section. Its fairly simple though. They shoot the plastic with silver dust under extremely high pressure, so that the silver dust imbeds itself into the plastic. That makes the plastic now electrically conductive. That means they can electroplate the plastic in copper and then nickel just as you would a raw steel bumper. I had most of the plastic plated in copper and nickel and then painted black, although the astray and air duct vent slates were further plated in chrome instead of being painted. The work was done by Paul's Chrome in Pittsburg and they are very very good. I hope that helps.

And thanks for the comments on the car. It is meant to be what the car could have been. Its not a fast and furious car obviously.
