Nikasil on plastics

We're involved in a project which needs to electroform a thick Nikasil shell (2-3 mm) on plastics (ABS). We can provide metallized parts but need help for Nikasil plating. If you happen to know the companies which can provide this kind of services, especially in Canada or USA, please say. We would appreciate your help very much. Best regards! Ke
