65 headlight bezel anodize hell

You might check some of the newer chrome finishes. I had my dash cluster redone by Sacramento Chrome. It was a chemical process, not real chrome plating, but they said it holds up better than actual chrome, at least on plastic parts. I recall the guy said they do it on exterior parts as well. If you re-anodize, there are processes to make purty colors like yellow, red, or blue. I never investigated the cost.
