Chrome Paint in Tampa
My girlfriend had an incident involving her mirror on her Mazda 3. Instead of repainting them body color, I suggested she go the chrome route for a different/elegante European/JDM look.
So which local body shops have the paint and know how to apply it properly? I want a shop who has experience with this paint, not a "so and so could do it no problem" recommendation. Please supply their name, contact info, and why you would recommend them.
I would supply the mirror covers so no labor taking the mirrors apart is needed. I just need someone to do a kickass job painting them chrome.
I appreciate the help.

As I said in the initial post I want her mirror covers painted, NOT her entire car.
Reading comprehension > you

FYI...I'm not trying to rice out her car. This is the look I am going for. I'd love to use these, but I refuse to let her pay $300+ to import these plastic pieces from the UK that just stick over the mirror with 3m tape.
