I did my front bumper to see if I liked it. my bumpers were pitted like crazy . but anyway,  I sanded down with 80 grit and sprayed with black SPI epoxy .

The chrome is tuff stuff!  if ya want them powder coated they will need to be sand blasted.

Just be aware - sandblasting or very coarse-grit sanding will make the piece more expensive to rechrome, not less.  Don't do it if you aren't sure you want to paint it.
