Default Chrome Raptor Style grills?

My 2018 Lariat has the Chrome package option on it. Do any of you know if any company sells a chrome Raptor style grill? I've never seen one but I would like to find one.

Previous generations have them. Best bet is to poke around ebay.

You could get a regular grille and chrome it your self. Not cheap though. https://shop.pchrome.com/PChrome-Artist-Starter-Kits

Never heard of a chrome powder coat, the only 2 ways I know of are the old fashioned way by plating using electricity or the chemical shower I posted a link to.

Well IMO if there were such a thing as a late model chrome'd Raptor grill, it wouldn't be a Raptor grill.

I would be all over this as well... I have to drop my Bronco spare tire rack off at my powdercoater on Monday/Tuesday, he does chrome plating as well, I will ask him how much something like this would cost to do...
