Mr.Taillight.com I just bought a set of headlight doors for my 86. They fit and look fine. No problems. They cost less than $25 + S&H.

Beware of the el-cheapo's. I got a tube grill for a Chevy a a local parts house a few years back and it started rusting in about three months time and they wouldn't replace or refund.

FWIW i put a chrome tube grille in my truck about two years ago. I drive the truck daily but keep it inside at night. I try to wax the truck once a month, and I always have to use chrome polish on the grille before wax, I can feel it gets rough on the back. It still looks good though, if you keep after it. I think if/when it gives up, I'm going to get stainless steel tubing, cut it to size, buff it like chrome, and attach them to the brackets I have now.
