How to do 80's Chrome logo in Gimp?

Played with some fonts a bit. It looks like a gradient with a few pinned colors and an aggressive bevel. I couldn't quite recreate the bevel because I was just using a normal font instead of one of those thick shapes, but it shouldn't be too hard to do if your image is large enough. If you can't do a proper bevel, try and put an outside stroke with the same gradient and an exclusion blend mode.The lights part seems like it could be tricky though.
