 cool  Yep, the "chrome job" on these pieces is pure crap.  The right side will start bubbling within a year, unless you have an enclosed area for storage.  The night-time condensation sets up and does not drain off.  If the piece had been properly copper-nickle-chrome plated it would hold up (just like the bumper on my F-150 pick-em-up truck), but, alas, the mfg just dragged the piece through the chrome only vat.  Chrome plating is just like painting - the quality is in the preparation and the base.  $100++ for two pieces of stamped sheet metal that will look just like the chrome job applied in short order is a rip off.  When my pieces finish bubbling, they will be prepped and powder coated by ME. Sorry for the rant, but cheap chrome jobs for quality chrome job prices is a pet peeve. angry
