Quote: so what would be better a repo that you can read, or a unreadable original. I had the ends of the pressure line re plated.
If you are shooting for O.E. correct, the faded original would be "more correct" (IMO, results may vary depending on the judging body), also, you could lose points for pitting or a non original plating color etc. that is evident on your original parts, but I'd still lean towards that scenario as opposed to a reproduction.
