Interior Chrome

It's a little thing, but it bothers me, so I want to fix it. I don't find any decent way to refinish the chrome over plastic on this little handle, so I was trying to use EPC to get the part number and see what it would cost to replace, but JAVA is choking on the EPC app on my PC.

Can anyone tell me how much of the center console would need to be replaced? Can I just get the sliding cover?

Before I found out the inside door handles were $17 each and replaceable, I peeled off the rest of the chrome and vinyl wrapped it. The only thing is you would have to choose between brushed aluminum, black or carbon fiber. I haven't sen a polished chrome vinyl wrap.

So you did this yourself? Any tips on how to actually do it? I looked and could tell there was something underneath... couldn't really see it. Couldn't figure out how to get the handle off or if it actually did come off.

I didn't have the clip, so there was no problem getting the handle off.

The handle has two bars that go through the cover, and the clip has two gaps to accept the bars. Slide the clip in the opposite direction of the gaps.
