The BMW board guys swear by plasti-dip. That's what I'm using for the chrome trim around the windows on the 5er. I sprayed my kidney grilles black and got flamed for it... stuck up douches... anyway they all said to plasti-dip it, I was worried about the durability but it comes off and leaves you with the same even finish you started with so that's a plus.

I blacked out the rear of my vette with it. Looked pretty good. It just feels a little weird to the touch.

Stuff works great! I did my buddies TBSS wheels about 7 months ago and its still holding up strong. I also just did my SS 22's a couple weeks ago.

I've heard that if you want it to come off easier, apply one or more coats of wax to the area to be sprayed.
