DOWN win the RUBBER black wrap around bumpers.

I have a 1985 Mercedes 280 sl EURO. When the car was rebuilt the front and back bumpers were replaced with the not so handsome wrap rubber ones.
Is it possible to buy chrome wrap arounds to replace the rubber wrap arounds or would I have to buy a complete new or used all Euro chrome bumper for front and back. The attachment is my car with the rubber wrap arounds.
Thanks for any input ..Reagards BILL

Well that`s a pretty straight forward answer .Thank you for your response.
Just out of curiosity what kind of horse power does the 450 kick out.

Depends on the year. My 1980 is 160. Not a rocket at take off, but will cruise at 100+ all day long(if the cops don't get you).
