I have an extra hood insert for my 67 GTO that I was thinking of getting it chromed, is this even possible?

Sure. You just need to find a chromer that can properly do metal, pot metal or plastic. However, it won't be cheap. Chroming seldom is cheap and what ever prep work is necessary is also usually by the hour as well. So do your homework and ask around.  Advanced Plating and Paul's Chrome are two nationally known chromers but I don't know if they can handle plastic or pot metal as easily. If your hood insert is cast or stamped metal, then any chromer should be able to chrome it. It if is pot metal or plastic, then a specialty chromer is needed.
