73 - 78 reproduction headlight bezel

[69Tom]

Has anyone ordered these? I'm wondering about the quality because they're so inexpensive. The originals are fairly solid, and would seemingly cost a lot more.

Well I guess I just answered my own question:

"New bezels around headlamps. Cheaper than repairing your old ones. Plastic"

If they are plastic forget it. I find the metal ones in junk yards often.

Mine aren't horrible. The chrome has a few issues here and there. I'd never consider plastic. I've already repainted them and they look ok.

I ordered a set from Classic Industries, the chrome was coming off of them when I opened the box. I know it might not necessarily be the same manufacturer, but I think it probably was.

They replaced them with another pair, but meh. If you are painting them then maybe it's a good option, but I am looking for an original set to rechrome instead.

The one on the right (of the truck) is one of the modern plastic ones as the headlight bucket got damage while my dad had it. I like to find a clean original metal headlight bucket one.
