Need chrome plating on small copper sheets

I have a 2 x 2" copper (alloy 110) sheets, 0.040" thick. The part has a #8 finish (mirror) on one side, and I am looking for chromium plating of 0.25 to 1 micron on the mirror side, but the Cr can be applied to the entirety. If possible, I'd like to avoid a Ni preplate, which I understand is common.
The quantity for this order is 100 pieces.
