Default Front/Rear Bumper color matching in Louisiana?

I've been to 4 body shop's in the Lafayette area and no one is willing to bead blast or take the chrome off and repaint my chrome bumpers to match my body color. They want me to buy black paint to match end caps for the rear bumper and a black front face bar for the front.

Anyone out there know someone in Louisiana that can color match chrome bumpers?
