I have a solid core. It was on an Arizona car for only 5 years so the chrome is 9 out of 10 and it's got a couple dents in it.
Don't want to use it but I'm getting quotes twice the price of reproduction replacements.
How are the reproductions, are they half the quality?

How are the reproductions, are they half the quality? ...The AMD bumpers are OEM equivalent in the fit/finish department (Nickle/Chromium), if you want show chrome (triple plate) then you have to pony up Here's a random FB post I pulled up...

Thanks for the feedback guys. Since it's not a numbers or show car. Mostly for street and strip play. The OEM equivalent quality is more than enough.
Just was hoping my very decent core was more than just a core but it is not good enough for a fresh paint car. Too bad there was not enough money to put the best of everything.
