Well found this company looks like source to get those non metallic parts in a chrome finish.
Not used them myself yet,but will be enquiring about my 550 air box end covers.I believe Mike Yeadon has used a similar finish on his covers successfully.

Re: Spray Chrome Fininsh
Col,
Do keep us all posted if its good. I sent mine to an old timer in Canada who had my 380 and 550 covers replated for me as they were back in the day. I couldn't find a plastic plating company in UK, though I'm told the scooter boys have contacts
Cheers,
Mike

Had a set of airbox covers done at http://www.chromespray.co.uk a couple of years ago.

Re: Spray Chrome Fininsh
It seems like you can buy the meterials from them and do it yourself.
