X2 on getting your original re-chromed. I bought a NOS bumper for my 68 Nova and it still had the blue rubber on it. I removed the rubber cover when I got home and it had all sorts of foreign material in the chrome. The filtration systems were awful back then. Way better quality control in new chroming processes now a days. After I bought the NOS bumper I had it re-chromed. I had a lot of money in a just one bumper. The guy I bought my bumper from wouldn't let me remove the rubber cover before I bought mine. It's really a roll of the dice.
