You should specify which style you want. Chrome or bare...

I don't beleive they ever came fully chromed, except for the 4 strips of chrome on the finned edges.

Plated is more the word actually. And yes, they were fully plated. One of the previous owners of mine stripped off the paint because he thought it "looked better", and I've been too lazy to correct it so far. There is a part number for "plated" and "painted" right on the back. I'd post it, but they're home and I'm at my shop.

Nova fender louvers did come either primed with the outer edge chromed for SS models, or completly chromed for the custom trim option. they were two separate GM part nbrs as they were for different applications.
I don't have any good used ones, but for what it's worth, there's a company that makes a very good repo in all chrome. They can be scuffed down, and a metal etch primer will hold the paint.

Ken, I think I have a pair of NOS ones in the boxes, I know I have some really nice used ones as well. I will be playing in the parts pile today and I will see what I can find. SULLY

I used a different technique on my louvers. I put a clear powdercoat on mine. Taped off the thin chrome strips, scuffed, painted, and then cleared the whole thing. Didn't want to take a chance of the chrome pitting. Repro stuff is so wonderful!
