I think the main difference is the radius of the top bend. it seems that the nostalgic bars seem to make a "D" (left side from front) shape where as the "chrome" bars have a much tighter radius to the top bend.

Does that make any sense at all?

This is what I was trying to say... See how the bar has a consistent radius like the letter D?



still I would like to see a comparison of the two styles from the side.

hope this helps!
