Have you tried that 'chrome in a can' (haha). Spray on chrome stuff that you can get from Bunnings or similar stores? I haven't tried it, but it might be worth a whirl.

you can buy strips of chrome at super cheap or autobarn...
strip the old one off, clean up the moulds and stick the new ones on...
I'm sick of my knob going all floppy and loose in my hand  :P

you can do that on the front/rear bars but not on the door moulds, they are part of the mould
