Halfrauds do a stick on chrome effect strip.  I used it on my Elite and it worked a treat. Easy to apply and is still there 4 years on.
Comes as a roll in a blister pack. Not sure of name but is had a load of Japanese writing on the pack. Found it in the "Boy racer, stick-on go faster" section.
There are two widths and I think I went for the one that was very slightly wider than the original chrome strip.

Enough to easily do front and back. :y

Edit: Similar to this http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/1259888/art/race-sport/chrome-plated-flexible-st.html  
but nowhere near as expensive.
