Probably any shop would do it, or even you can do it by DIY threads.

I don't think you can really paint anything to look chrome other than using silver or some variation. Chrome isn't a paint.

There is some kind of spray paint some guys use that gives the effect. I think its called killer chrome or something like that

Yeah, there's probably some paint out there to give off the effect, but I think it'd be really hard to find one that looks close to an OEM chrome plated or Chrome plastic look.
