there are 2 ways to have a shiny chrome:
- use plastic shader with white specular or,
- use metal shader like silver or aluminium without altering parameters

but for both above, you must have some environmental things around to have nice reflections..

i suggest you arranging some studio setup... an infinite base and some plane emitters around...

your object has too planar surfaces.. there it's more hard to have artistic reflections on it... so if your emitter planes are so large, make'em narrower,
if they are looking object at perfect angles, disturb them a bit... simply rotate. or better send a screenshot... infact this thread is not suitable for gallery section... you better send it under appropriate section and update here when you satisfied with the result :D
