Console trim pieces

Hello,
Does anyone reproduce the chrome strips for a 70-72 console or console door? Also, does anyone know where to get the plastic rivets that attach the trim to the console door?
I appreciate any help - Thanks!

The chrome strips are not reproduced,but I have an assortment of nice originals.
I wet-sand all the clear anodize off,and buff them to a mirror finish. Is yours bent or just scratched?

Hello and thanks for the reply.
I have a good chrome piece, but it has a couple of broken tabs.
I have another, but it has a lot of scratches, but I will sand and polish as you suggest.
The chrome around the console door is decent, but the holes where the plastic rivets go are broken (circle has snapped).
Do you restore consoles?

If I'd only know, eh. Thanks for the help Brian.
Would you happen to have a picture or two of how the lower piece of a 4-speed console is modified/cut? Thanks!!

Yes,the lower portion is cut on the left side,to clear the hump.Sometimes the workers just snapped it off,or however they could remove it.
I will get you some pictures.
