lol, I also have a $35,000+ 3d printer, they are not good for anything like this, even with sanding and painting, you're not going to like the result much.

I personally would recommend professional prototyping, $35-60 for a OEM quality CNC'd polished stainless steel, or even chrome painted PC, and then however much for shipping, that's what I do.
