Default Fastback vents

The interior vents in my '67 Fastback (the ones above the rear quarter panels, just behind the door windows) and pitted pretty badly. I've been looking all over the place for new reproductions but can't seem to find any. Does anyone know where I could track down a pair or do you think I'd be better off having my existing ones blasted and re-chromed?

I do not believe any aftermarket ones are available. Is it the chrome that is badly pitted? I know the ones on my 68 were awful, but finally just cleaned them up as best I could, and put them back in. I can check a local source here if you would like me to. Let me know.

First off, I'd just like to say, nice car, I have a '67 fastback as well. Second, I don't know if you've ever heard of Mustangs Plus, it's a company out of Stockton, California, and they sell a lot of aftermarket parts, just for mustangs. I've never looked for replacement vents like that, because mine are fine, but you might want to check it out.

Thanks guys.
Ron, I'll let you know I decide to take you up on that offer. I've got a few more places I might check out. The pitting is fairly bad IMO, but it's not nearly as bad as the stuff I'm finding on eBay!

Mine are pitted as well, and I havent seen repro's made as of yet. As previously stated, clean them up as best you can, that is what I am planning to do as well.
