Jet Vent Window Chrome
-
On my left, rear door, the vent window chrome has a lot of brown rust on it. I know it can be cleaned up, but the rust pits will still be there. The one on the spare door is in worse shape. Trying to decide if I should send it out to get rechromed, or find a replacement. I could use the one I've got, but it may not look right compared to the quality of the rest of the car and would hate to have to take the door apart later to do it right.

Glen Johnson is always rechroming these things. Here's a sample. Contact him and he might just have one or can rechrome yours.
Here's a sample on ebay
