I have never seen chromed rear vent before, but before you go through the expense of chrome plating you might want to try polishing it by hand first.  Richard W., one of our members who lives in Bolivia posted instructions a while back for stripping aluminum parts using Drano and little bit of elbow grease.  I tried it with my headlight bezels and they turned out very nice. I can show you how to do it sometime, or perhaps Richard will see this thread and re post the instructions.

I've had a couple sets of bumpers done by them and took about a week to get them back each time which is pretty good.  They take cash only, no credit cards.
