You could try a chrome spray > www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaFJsiBclb0

The chrome spray on Youtube looks really good, but aslo really expensive when used just for spraying a seat edging trim.

I finally went for the chrome spray, but not the type shown on Youtube above.

I bought a can of chrome spray on eBay for £2.99 including post.

The lid of the can looks like real chrome, but the final sprayed result looks more like shiny aluminium.

Anyway I'm satisfied with the result, as it looks better than the non-shiny white plastic showing after I rubbed off what was left of the original chrome.
