My concern about the finish is, if they are chromed and get slightly damaged (dinged), your repair options are very limited outside of re-chroming. Whereas if they are polished like the originals, repair would be an option available to most of the owners.
From what I have seen, the new ones look to be flash chromed. If that is the case, how well are they going to hold up?
It would be nice to get some side by side comparisons. It is very difficult to get decent comparison pictures of parts with reflective surfaces, so this may be an unrealistic request.

This is another reason I asked about the finish. Posted on Wed May 12 2004 10:31 AM Quote:
Here's the update on the trim rings...
The supplier has the tooling along with the samples that Daniel Banker was kind enough to loan us. Right now the supplier is looking for a good plating source as the original company is out of business.
We want these things to look and fit just like the originals.
I'm sure everyone will understand.
Thanks,

And this reference to the new 15x6.5" trim rings.

We do have the 15 X 6.5 trim ring tooling which we have gone ahead and produced products (P5153310 - Chrome, P5153311 - Brushed) since there is still a demand for this size. These are shipping to the Mopar depot in a week.
