You need the chrome to reflect something, look for some angular maps (or make one yourself) and apply this to half a nurbs sphere that encompases your scene via a lambert material with the incandesance turned up, should work.

Or you could simply whack a HDR image on to it and use that for the lighting (but thats a bit of a cheat if you want to learn about lighting)
