No worries, the OEM ones aren’t stainless steel, either. They’re “stainless appearance,” i.e. plastic with a thin veneer of cheesy chrome plating that’s about one molecule thick.
You can electroplate 3D prints by using a basecoat of conductive spraypaint, and then the limit of the thickness of your plating is only really limited by your patience. Nickel is quite easy to do at home.

I quite like electroplating with titanium. Can vary the voltage for some great colors too.
