You would have to coat the inside of the reflector with some sort of silver paint, I would suggest smoothing out the surface first with either a topcoat or filler or vigorous sanding, then painting. It could be done, just would be a lot of work after the printing.

Not going so well due to some technical issues with the CAD software though. The blue part isn't working so well as it is behaving differently to the elements that I drafted. Need to work that out.

I can provide you with alternative solid files. What CAD program are you using?
