Budget headlight reflector coating
 

Vinyl wrap does work. But that well, but if you don't habitually drive at night, this measure should suffice for another year or so of driving.

I am restoring an old tractor headlight(5 inches diameter) that will be mounted on the front bumper of my '31 Coupe. The reflector is bad, so I am using Rust-Oleum Bright Coat Metallic Finish in a rattle-can. Color is labeled "Chrome". It puts out a lot of light.

I used Rustoleum Chrome on the insides of my Studebaker bumper guards, where chrome doesn't plate well, and the chrome looks great and will keep it from rusting.
