Default Who Sells Chrome Intake Plenum Covers?

Trying to find a chrome intake plenum cover, one that fits over the stock plenum and is held in place by velcro (I assume). All I've been able to find so far are painted covers but remember seeing chrome ones that were available several months ago.

Does anyone have the website for someone who sells these?

I'm looking for one like the photo below but in chrome.

I took the photo of the black one off the Kewl website. I don't have one yet. Kewl doesn't show a chrome one as being available, just ones in the factory colors. I thought there was another vendor besides Kewl who sold chrome ones, but can't find it yet.

I called Kewl about the chrome plenums they were selling and was told
they started having problems with the chrome flaking off! So they have a
mess of flakey covers they had to buy back. They did say they are working
with a new chromer that is looking promising. They won't know for two or
three months if the process is good though.

I talked to kewl and he said to call back after the first of the year because he had some coming in and wanted to test them first. I plan on getting one also, they are $550. That is the only company I know has them.

As stated above, Kewl is the only manufacturer of this part.

I picked up one of the first chromed ones nearly 2 years ago, no problems at all with the plating quality.
