Chrome for rear bumper

Does anyone know where to get the chrome top of an US W123 rear bumber?

Or do I have to look for a nice complete one?

LA California.... and you cant find nearby MB dismantlers and parts suppliers??

What you dont want to do is get any sort of aftermarket or "rechromed" bumper..... PO of my car rammed a deer, then replaced the front bumper with cheapest New Jersey aftermarket/rechromed "new" garbage part he could find.

You can see from the pic that practically all the rechroming has peeled off - except one bit under the headlight that I'm hopin will fall off soon.... so i can at least paint the entirely stripped bumper rustoleum black - like i did with headlight doors and the grill.
