While I'll not question the taste of mod, you'll find that antennas don't like to be covered with thin metal sheets.
BUT dont do it it will look naff.
I seen people change CF 1s and that looks naff too.
so for me I would just leave it as it is.
but if you like it then do it but not metal

You may need to remove the existing fin and send it out to be chromed. I am assuming the fin is plastic, not steel so conventional "chroming/nickel plating" won't work but I'm sure there is somebody that can coat the plastic with chrome.

Why stop at the shark fin when you can chrome the entire car? 
I do hope the owner has been locked up to prevent himself from harming other people, not just himself and his automobiles...
