Hi all
The chrome on the surround of my gear shifter isn't in the best condition - looks like it's "creased" in parts and some bits have actually lifted exposing the plastic underneath... I'd like to remove all the chrome and re-spray it to match the grey/silver fascia color... what's the best way to remove chrome from a part like this, and what's the best way to even remove this surround for painting?
Hope I have explained clearly enough the part I described. Can post a photo of it once I get home.

I'd also like to do something similar to the handbrake release button as most of the chrome on this is completely gone.

Thanks guys :)
