    Tailgate bars.

    Replace or re-chrome?

    Probably better and cheaper to replace, either with NOS or reproduction. There are still a lot of NOS parts available (except for the center bar, which is a more difficult item to find NOS or good original rechromed)...

    Replace. Very hard to rechrome these. Most get over coppered and the build up makes it difficult for the clips to snap in.
