Do you have more detail on the process so I may be able to find someone to strip my grill?

Any place that does hard chrome (non decorative) can do it. Most simply just dont want to. To remove chrome, you just do the exact same process in reverse. All my abs plastic was dechromed this way.

You can peel the chrome w/ a heat gun to. Takes about an hour.
