Before I made the decision to try and re-plate the pot metal ones, I had ordered the S.S. reproduction bezels from Dennis Carpenter but I returned them because I didn't like the quality. They were made in China, of course, had sharp edges and seemed a bit dull.
I have a S.S. buffing kit from Eastwood that I got years ago when I was restoring the brightwork on my '31 Model "A". It's worked well on the other pieces on the F-1 so I'd like to try it on an original pair of S.S. bezels. My guess is that they'll end up looking nicer that the reproductions once they're restored.

The Cosmichrome parts that I had done are amazing. They are brighter than the original chrome ones that I have seen and should hold up very well.
