Mine is going on 15 years old and no issues whatsoever. Looks great still and plating has held up very well. Like North said the plating shade is a little off, almost washed out somewhat compared to the original but that never was an issue when it was judged in concurs class at the POCI and GTOAA conventions. The Delco Moraine stampings are very crisp and show well.

I will admit I wish I had the original on my car still for purist reasons and I still have my original in a box but, it was pitted and re-plating it would have done nothing to correct the pitting. The new one made the most sense.
