acetoned grill?

Has anyone tried using acetone on the front grill to make it all chrome? I know it works on the other emblems...but, does it work on the grill?

jd.. he is talking about trying th same procedure on the grill as people do on their plastic emblems.

I don't think they "chrome" the whole grill though... I think the only finish the part we see.
