I thought our grills were plastic. If they are plastic and you find a way to chrome them...... you are on your way to some big money. Someone on E-bay chromes the 2nd Gen. Marcus

you can't actually chrome the first gen grill because they are plastic as mentioned above. the only way to chrome them is to paint them chrome which will come out pretty ugly because it won't be smooth and won't even look right.
