Recommendations for interior chrome trim and armrest re-paint?

The interior chrome trim is peeling off and the arm rests have seen better days. Recommendations on refinishing short of replacing them?

Thanks!

Since you have a black interior, I would recommend SEM Color Coat in Landau black. 15013.
It is great for your arm rests, kick panels, dash etc. I just recently did several interior items. It is a perfect match to the original and is easy to work with.

My armrests looked at least as bad as yours. I decided to just replace them with repops . I am also considering replacing the door panels as well. You can repaint them for sure, but the issue with the peeling chrome is the bigger problem imo.

The end result after painting. Not too bad and they'll do for now...

For some reason, they look good in person but look weird in the pics...
