I am not sure that they can be chromed since they are not metal. Try contacting Kewl I know that they have a Plenum that has been chrome so they maybe able to do that for you if you decide. Just a thought

Yes, I have had my ACI fender grilles chrome plated, but I never installed them. Also, Advanced Plating did the chrome plating for me, and it was not cheap.
My '02 Coupe is pewter, and I painted the side coves black. After that, the chrome fender grilles were just too much "bling" for my taste, so I put them on the shelf and was reminded of the cost of "trial and error".
Sorry I don't have a picture to post, but I think they would look good on the right color car.
Good luck!
