There's an entirely new process of chroming actually. It's almost entirely like painting now. Probably not NEARLY as durable as true chroming, but I saw something on it on one of the many car shows out there. They even chromed one of those little Nike footballs, but unfortunately they didn't squeeze it so I could see how the chrome reacted on it, i.e. flexibility. So now you can chrome just about EVERYTHING and I'm guessing that this is basically what this car received.
