58-59 headlight bezel

I am missing my headlight bezels and wanted chrome(polished whatever material)
Is there a repop brand that fits good or should I track down a nice original pair and get them chrome plated?
I just want them to fit nice. My experience with repopped parts has not been too good, but maybe the bezels are decent?

Have yours replated. They will fit like orginal and not turn orange like the repos.

How long until they turn orange? The set I got from The Car and Truck shop have been on my truck for 7 years and still look as good as new, and it gets driven...
