I think the SCW guys have had them redone, looked great with the correct vacuum chrome process etc... Sure beats the old silver paint pen

I used Henry Estheimer in Columbus for mine. Turned out great. I heard he had a health setback, so I don't know if he is still doing them. Haven't talked to him in a couple of years. If you are interested, I can dig out his number.

Contact these guys for comparable estimates.
They do great work with outstanding results,thus more costly too.
Both do the original Vacuum Metalized Aluminum Finish.
