Restoration of headlight surrounds

They would have to have some sort of coating on them, otherwise they would have corroded before they left the dealers yard. My guess is anodised. You would wonder why they were not done in stainless steel like all the other exterior trim bits.

I have talked to a few friends who are jewlers and the have all suggested annodising as well. I have also been recommended a place in ACT. The worst bit is the labour sanding and polishing them back. Maybe I'll take your suggestion GTS and get them de plated and then it'll be easyier to re polish and prep them.

Our local hot rod club, of which I am Treasurer, had a tour night of the chromer in question last Friday night. What an eye opener! I now know why chroming costs so much and will never try and knock them down in price again. The guys at Electroplating Technology in Queanbeyan is "THE PLACE" to get your chroming done. Just ask for Shane and tell him GT from the Canberra Hot Rod Association sent you. The time and detail these guys put into their work is absolutely amazing.
