Sheet Metal request

Does anyone have a chrome bumper car sitting in the back 40 that they might be willing to give up the rear corners of?

I'm converting Ms. Triss to chrome bumper and already have a new valance for the back. I was planning on letting my body guy fabricate the outside corners but he assures me that having something to weld in would be much better. I can buy new at $50 a pop but thought I'd ask here first.

This is to get the curve back under the tailights - the joint for the rear valance is right down the middle of the line if that makes sense

thanks all

Well, I have some old ones I cut off a car on it's way to the crusher. But it is going to be so much work cleaning and repairing them that I think I am going to buy new. Lemme pull them out, think about it some more and get back to you.
