It would cost as much to re-chrome (maybe more) than it would for a take off.

+1 on Webster... I go every month whether looking for something or not. Most times not looking for something but find something to buy anyway!?!? Another great place to find most anything Harley is H&B Cycle in Ocala. I have bought and traded a lot of parts with Richard over the years.

I would do the take offs or powder coat it ya want a new look. No reason to buy new stock parts IMHO.
