Default wtb chrome handles

I'm looking for chrome handles. The ones that are the whole thing not just the stick on ones. Let me know what you got. Thanks

Im trying to figure out if the handles are metal. If they are, then you could take it to a chrome shop and have them chrome plate it. That was my original plan.
