Plastic "Chrome"

Seems like over the weekend there was a commercial on T.V. dealing with a "Chrome" plating product for plastic trim and last night I noticed that the plating on my rear window trim is peeling.
Damn thing is, when commercials come on the T.V. my mind fogs over and I don't pay any attention and occasionally I do miss a pertinent one. Anyone know anything about such a product?
Thanks for any help on this

no but instead of buying a real chrome peice for around my grill we used this plastic bendable bead kinda trim stuff. it has worked really well for goin on five years but now the plastic coating is starting to seperate. guess i should try and find a gto grill before they are totally impossible to find.

The GTO grille

No kidding, try e-bay motors.
Just as a fluke I tried finding some Cadillac wire wheels (not hubcaps - I've got them now) to buy for my '51 Mercury (it's got Chevrolet running gear) and lo and behold someone has them for sale.
Give them a try - they may surprise you,
