Chrome touch up pen, or paint?

I don't know if they make something like this, but I need come help looking for it. On my chrome bumper on 4runner, I have a chip and I want to fill it in. I'm wondering if they make a paint pen or something that has chrome liquid in it, or would help fill it in and looks like chrome?

Any ideas?

I don't know of anything like that Jason. If it needs filling, try super glue. Use a tooth pick to apply. A dab of silver model paint is all I can think of. Or they have model chrome foil. It's real thin, adhesive backed. Best to put something on as chipped chrome likes to rust.

Jason,

Check
Caswell out. I have not personally used any of their products, but they do sell some chrome plating kits. They advertise their Plug N' Plate kits for chrome touchup.

Some people on rec.crafts.metalworking mentioned them a few years ago, and I don't recall anyone complaining at that time.
I actually got one of their kits to put a black coating on some steel, but as usual, I never got around to it so I can't say if it worked or not.
