Chrome vent windows question

I have a great passengers side chrome frame vent window and I am looking for a drivers side. I could chrome a painted frame but if I could find one with decent chrome that would be preferable. Did all 51 and 52 trucks have the chromed frame? Just F-1's? Just 5 star cabs?

I think it might be hard to chrome a painted one because of the riveted pivot posts. Seems like you'd have to take it all apart to chrome then re-rivet.
