Hi, These lads used to be customers of mine Willochrome - The Chrome Specialists They have perfected a chrome plating procedure that can go on anything even wellington boots lol. Don't know how much they'll charge though, but there are pics of chrome mobile phones so I bet they can do Txi cases.

As far as I know Delkim will not do one offs..my mate rang them and asked if he sent his receiver back would they change all his LED,S to Blue and they said No - We only do what you see on the Bank and No one offs!. That was about 18 months ago but given the Credit Crunch????

Googled Info:
Plastic parts can not be easily electroplated is because
plastic is a nonconductor of electricity. Plastics can be metallized
though, through numerous plating processes. The automotive industry does use metallized plastic parts as does the Plumbing trade ie shower heads.
The process requires the parts must be perfectly clean from
any oil, grease or any plastic injection mold compounds. If the parts are
not cleaned properly, the metal will peel off over time from the plated
plastic part. Then you process the plastic part in a very aggressive
chromic/sulfuric acid bath to etch the plastic surface (make small pits on
the surface). Then you place the plastic part in a palladium chloride
bath to place metal particles in the previous pits made on the plastic
surface. After this palladium metal deposition, one can electroplate the
part with copper metal and then chrome plate or many other various metals
such as nickel or gold.

Hmmmm gold plated delkins......whoes up first?
