I'd be interested to see what this looks like. I'm toy'ing around with other "color" ideas as well. DSOM is the easy option - but it's a spoiler and I'd like to avoid blending it in with the car; a good choice for some.
Here are some prices for "chroming plastic"

http://www.chromeservices.com/process.htm - custom chrome plastic section - I'm sure it's probably cheeeep.
AS for it being 2rice or not2rice - that's for the beholder.

Right I just ordered my chrome door handles and got them from fred b last Friday. I've got them on and they look great - many a compliment.
The spoiler I'm not so sure about - it's worth a test. I'm thinking about poping it off and putting aluminimum foil on it with scotch tape to get an idea of looks - like a mock up. Some might call it 'ghetto rice' - ahh, my sense of humor at it's best.

Just for s--t's and giggles I am going to chrome plate my stock rear spoiler and check it out. I'll get back to you with the public reaction.
I like my WCC LED spoiler. Just experimenting.
How about carbon fiber?
I think in the near future there will be more choices.
