Haven’t seen an NOS one in years. Good used ones turn up time to time but typically sell for about $500. Franks has a nice one but they are selling it with the bumper-grille assembly for about $900 and the shipping will be very pricey. On one of my cars several years ago I couldn’t find a good one so my body guy fabbed a sheet metal skin. It came out beautiful but I never asked how many hours it took him (it was buried in the whole repainting of the car). Probably $1,500? Mine was painted but I guess you could have chromed it?
There is a thread here somewhere on those nose pieces that has pictures of that project.
Long story short, on a budget use the fiberglass repro especially if you have the patience to fit it yourself. Doing a high quality car then call Franks and take the pill.
