Air cleaner color
Pssstttt, translucent "candy" powders can create that exact look. This is just one of dozens.
Applied over a shiny base, translucent powders look like a colored mirror.
Though the best prep for long-term durability includes media blasting (which will rough up your existing chrome finish and provide "tooth" for the powder to adhere), it can be shot right on top of that chrome. Of course any defects in the chrome will show through; I don't recommend it anyway (preferring a chrome replica powder base over blasted metal instead) ... because if it's flaking, peeling or bubbling now, it will just take that pretty candy orange with it when it finally separates from the substrate steel.
I don't have any candy orange in my stash but here's a couple other candies to give you an idea of how they turn out.
Red and gold are both candies.
Everything on the eagle is candy except for the white.
Just presenting options ... :D
