67 Newport Custom – Pot metal molding

Howdy folks,

My rolling restoration is going steady. Interior redo, paint soon. But what to do about the pot metal molding that is pitted?

I feel bad about putting all this work into the car and trim it with pitted metal. Local replating shop quoted WAY too much. These lower moldings on the Newport Custom are really hard to find. A few on eBay...most of them look about the same as mine.

I'm thinking of just putting the old pot metal on and gradually buying up NOS pieces as I can find...
