Default The Chrome stuff in Nissan 350Z lights

Okay so this is a ford forum, but what the heck hey?...

Long story short, a mate had a accident about 2 or 3 years ago in his '02 350Z, and cracked the sealer on his passenger light (it wasn't replaced)... and it leaked water so we pulled the light apart to polish the plastics, and the black stuff (see the picture) was bubbling up so I assume it was paint of some type, its glossy black, but chrome on the under side?...

First things first, how can I remove the black paint type stuff, at the moment I sprayed it matte black which it does actually look decent but you can see where its flaking up...

2nd thing is, this chrome stuff is like a paint... does anyone know if you can buy it of it we gotta take it in to be sprayed because after I un-masked the the rest of the cover it start pulling the chrome off (I assume its weather damaged from leaking water..)

Oh yes, lol it is a twin turbo 350 hence the front mount... yes it goes hard!
