Plasti-Dip... no prep needed other than cleaning the surface and it's durability is pretty good, rigt about halfway between auto paint and bedliner.
Other nice thing about it is if you don't like it or ever want to go back to the chrome, you can slit it with a sharp knife or scalpel and peel it off, it's a synthetic rubberized coating and because you didn't sand the hell out of the chrome, it's good as new underneath...

plastic dip is good for a flat black, did my wheels with it.
but i used nightshade on all my chrome emblems and i think it looks
sweet almost like a shiny powdercoat. if its purple just do more light coats till its black.

edit: 1 coat in middle, 2 on outside edge
