Euro Headlight reflectors?

Found a pair of Euro Headlights but the reflectors are toast. The steel is good, no rust, but the aluminum (?) reflective surface is missing from a significant portion of the reflector.

1. anybody have a set of reflectors they want to sell/trade?
2. Will having the steel chromed make them useful again?

Thanks,
Dull Mike

there was a fellow on here who was having some reflectors re-done.. there is a guy in Cali who advertises w/ the Packard club who does an OK job..

got the amps yesterday btw, thx! Chatted w/ your friend, but never heard back from him w/ the additional info I requested..imagine he's a busy fellow:)

Good. I'll contact some chrome shops today to see what it will cost and how long it's going to take.

Thanks!

Found a shop here in Vegas that will chrome them for $70 each and gave them to him yesterday. A bit higher than I wanted to spend, but it will make them shiny again. I'll start with the stock 55w/65w H4 bulbs and if the chrome doesn't quite reflect as well as the MB process provides I'll adapt and overcome. I have a pair of 80w/100w H4 bulbs that will most assuredly get the light out there!!

He said I'll get them back in a week. Stay tuned.
