Are any of the reproductions of decent quality? I know Drake markets them and Speedway offers something for under $300...

The reproductions look nice, but: They are not spring steel (Dent easily) They require lots of wax to keep them from rusting. The price is attractive compared to replating the spring steel ones. I've done it both ways and prefer the spring steel originals when I can find them.

I bought some very good ones from the BumperBoyz in L.A. Not cheap, but for such a prominent part, who wants bad ones? They have a web site.

I agree with 34 Ford on using originals. I had repos on my 40 and recently found two nice originals and had them replated. Not cheap but they do look nicer and are spring steel. The chrome on the repos is marginal.
