    Is it proper chrome or just the cheap coating they put on the plastic? Either way it just needs to be scratched up good and proper. A scouring pad should do the trick or fine steel wool.

    From what I was told they were genuine toyota quadies, they were black when I purchased the car but have chrome breaking through underneath. guessing its the cheap plastic they use on mass produced junk

    I would start by getting all the old black off to see what's underneath properly.

    I actually cannot tell the headlights have tinted film on them, there is literally no difference in visibility
