Best bet there is going to be a wrecking yard... although they're not likely to take the time to remove trim (since it's easily damaged and they're not making any money on it).

I'd look for someone local to wrap the trim in a bronze wrap... some of that stuff looks phenomenal.

I'm with AZ. Best to get your existing trim or used trim wrapped. Another option is Plasti-Dip. There is a gimormous number of metals like aluminum, bronze, gold, anthracite, etc to choose from. It's super easy to do and the best part, if you aren't happy - just peel it back off and you're out about $20. Once peeled, it leaves no marks behind and does NOT damage anything that it is sprayed on. Hear is an old tutorial from my mate Fonzie who has built an amazing company here in Florida specializing in this market. Great videos at his you tube channel.

I used Plasti-Dip to create custom eyebrows for my headlamps using a white base coat and adding a few coats of aluminum dip then topping it off with a metalizer dip. I also used black dip to paint all but the center two rungs of my grille. Looks like the emblem is floating in a black background.
